There’s been a lot of criticism surrounding the Bears receiving corps heading into the 2022 season. But Darnell Mooney is the proven commodity among the group.
Mooney, a former fifth-round pick, had an impressive rookie season and followed it up with a 1,000-yard receiving season last year. Now, he’s Justin Fields’ top weapon heading into Year 3, where he’ll be the focus for opposing defenses.
But outside of Mooney, there are question marks. While Byron Pringle and third-round rookie Velus Jones Jr. have potential, they’re unproven. Which makes Mooney even more important heading into 2022.
