The Panthers and Moore agreed to terms on a one-year contract Tuesday.
EDGE Analysis
Moore suited up for all 17 of Carolina's regular-season games in 2024, in which span he put up a 32-351-3 receiving line on 57 targets. The 30-year-old will spend the offseason working to again entrench himself as a reliable depth option behind Adam Thielen and Xavier Legette (foot), with Jalen Coker currently looking like the favorite for the No. 3 role. The Panthers remain a likely candidate to add further playmakers to the wide receiver corps this offseason, whether via April's draft or more free agent deals.

Moore caught 32 of his 57 targets for 351 yards and three touchdowns across 17 regular-season games in 2024.
EDGE Analysis
Moore had one of the most productive seasons of his career with Carolina in 2024, recording his highest totals in receptions, yards and touchdowns since his 2020 campaign with Seattle. He benefitted from increased offensive opportunities following Diontae Johnson's trade to Baltimore in late October and injuries to Jalen Coker and Adam Thielen throughout the season, playing the second-most offensive snaps (545) among Carolina's wide receivers. After completing his first season with the Panthers, Moore is set to become an unrestricted free agent this summer. The 30-year-old is likely to sign a short-term deal and compete for another depth role in 2025, whether in Carolina or with another team.

Moore caught his only target for 17 yards in Sunday's 48-14 loss to the Buccaneers.
EDGE Analysis
With Xavier Legette back from injury in Week 17, Moore returned to his role as the Panthers' No. 4 wide receiver. He saw just one target, hauling in a 17-yard pass from Bryce Young late in the second quarter of Sunday's loss. The veteran wideout has now accumulated 31 receptions for 342 yards and two touchdowns while appearing in all 16 of Carolina's games this season. Moore is expected to remain a depth piece in the Panthers' wide receiver corps in the Week 18 divisional matchup against the Falcons.

Moore (concussion) caught two of three targets for 39 yards and a touchdown while taking his only carry for no gain in Sunday's 36-30 overtime win over the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Moore overcame the concussion he sustained in Week 15 in order to make a spot-start for Xavier Legette (hip) on Sunday. The 29-year-old Moore made the most of his opportunity, hauling in an 18-yard touchdown reception in the fourth quarter of an eventual upset victory. It is currently unclear if Legette will return in Week 17, but Moore's ceiling is likely limited to deep leagues even in the event he earns another start against Tampa Bay next Sunday.

Moore (concussion) is active for Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Darin Gantt of the Panthers' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis

With Xavier Legette (hip) inactive, Moore is expected to start in his place. vying with Jalen Coker for reps alongside top wide receiver Adam Thielen. Moore has multiple catches in seven consecutive contests, a span in which he's tallied a 23-242-1 line on 41 targets.

Moore (concussion) is expected to be available for Sunday's game versus the Cardinals, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
EDGE Analysis
Moore was a limited participant during practice Wednesday and Thursday before being listed as a full participant Friday. He still has to be cleared by an independent neurologist before suiting up again, and his official availability will not be revealed until 90 minutes prior to kickoff at 1 p.m. ET on Sunday. Rookie wideout Xavier Legette (hip) has already been ruled out. Meanwhile, fellow rookie Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is questionable, but he is also expected to suit up, per Schefter. Expect veteran Adam Thielen to lead this receiving corps while Moore and Coker round out this starting unit.

Moore (concussion) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cardinals.
EDGE Analysis
Xavier Legette (hip) is out, and Jalen Coker (quadriceps) is questionable, so Moore could be looking at every-down wideout snaps if he gains clearance for Sunday. Moore was able to practice fully Friday, suggesting Moore has a good chance to suit up versus Arizona. Moore has posted a 28-286-1 line on 50 targets this season.

Moore (concussion) was a limited practice participant Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
With Xavier Legette (hip) not practicing and unlikely to play in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, there's a chance for Moore to regain a regular spot in three-wide formations if he clears concussion protocol. In the event that doesn't happen, Deven Thompkins and Dan Chisena are Carolina's healthy depth receivers.

Moore (concussion) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
Moore appears to have a picked up a concussion in the Panthers' loss the Cowboys on Sunday, despite playing 28 offensive snaps and catching two of his four targets for 19 yards. The veteran wideout's limited session Wednesday is promising, but he still must clear the NFL's five-step concussion protocol in order to suit up in Week 16, when the Panthers play the Cardinals.

Moore caught two of his four targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 30-14 loss to the Cowboys.
EDGE Analysis
The veteran wideout saw minimal offensive work in the first three quarters of Sunday's loss with the return and emergence of undrafted rookie Jalen Coker (4-110-1). However, Moore was targeted four times in the fourth quarter after 2024 first-round pick Xavier Legette exited the Week 15 loss with a groin injury. Moore could continue to see increased work with Carolina's first-team offense in the Week 16 matchup against the Cardinals is Legette is unable to suit up.
