Sources familiar with the transaction confirmed Thursday that the Buffalo Bills have reached an agreement to obtain wide receiver D.J. Moore from the Chicago Bears, according to two individuals with direct knowledge of the deal who spoke to The Associated Press.
The trade involves Buffalo sending Chicago a second-round selection in this year’s draft in exchange for Moore and a fifth-round pick, according to the sources. The individuals requested anonymity since the transaction cannot be finalized until the new league year begins on Wednesday.
The nearly 29-year-old receiver recorded 50 receptions for 682 yards and found the end zone six times during the previous season, helping Chicago reach the playoffs in Ben Johnson’s inaugural campaign as head coach. Moore will now join Buffalo under new coach Joe Brady, providing quarterback Josh Allen with another target after the team has cycled through various receivers in recent seasons.
