Staying on top of your game in the NFL is vital to maintaining your position on a team, regardless of your past accolades. At the end of training camp, the Kansas City Chiefs will have tough decisions regarding their crowded and talented wide receivers room.
Chiefs head coach Andy Reid has a reputation for giving players the opportunity to earn and keep their spots, especially the players with a high upside. On Sunday, he spoke highly of wide receiver Skyy Moore, entering his third season with the Chiefs and looking to secure a spot on this year’s team.
“He’s a few years into this thing now. So just cut loose and play through it,” said Reid. “Go play, and he’s doing a nice job with that. He’s actually playing good football right now.”
The Chiefs placed Moore on their injured reserve list after defeating the New England Patriots in Week 15 last season due to a knee injury. He didn’t have the expected impact in his second season, finishing the year with 21 catches for 244 yards and a touchdown. Rashee Rice became a primary wide receiver target for Patrick Mahomes in his rookie season as the hobbled Moore dealt with injuries.
