Josh Allen: DJ Moore fits in this locker room really well

Yahoo Sports

After consecutive years of leading the Bears in receiving, DJ Moore’s production dipped in 2025. But now Moore is back with a coach who helped him get to one of his most productive seasons, as the Bills traded for him in March — reuniting him with his former offensive coordinator, Joe Brady. As it turns out, he’s reuniting with quarterback Josh Allen, too, though not necessarily in the traditional way.

“We go, actually, way back,” Allen said in his Tuesday press conference. “We sat next to each other at the rookie premiere, signing Panini cards and autograph cards next to each other. … So, [we were] getting some good conversations back then.

“It’s pretty cool to have him here now. ” Moore hasn’t been on the field with Allen for long, but the two are establishing chemistry. Allen noted that he can already tell Moore is a great teammate.

“He’s really one of the guys,” Allen said. “Obviously, it’s a really natural relationship that we have. Fits in this locker room extremely well, very talkative with the guys.

And just very excited to work with him. ” Plus, unlike last year, Allen won’t have to establish chemistry with a key receiver on the fly. “[Y]ou’re able to do more [in OTAs], to see what works and what doesn’t,” Allen said.
