Darnell Mooney has had no catches in three Chicago Bears games and tight end Cole Kmet has a hamstring injury, so someone must step up besides DJ Moore.

00:10 Yeah, that's gonna be a constant growth for us, right?
00:13 It's really important for us to have a lot of people involved in our game,
00:17 in our game plan and in our process.
00:19 So we have a lot of guys that we can get involved.
00:23 It's a good group of receivers around DJ and
00:25 then you have our tight end group and our backs as well.
00:27 So we feel really good about that.
00:29 That's gonna be really important for us to go forward.
00:31 I mean, if we wanna go where we wanna go,
00:32 it's gotta be, we're not gonna be a one man show that doesn't really exist.
00:36 So we gotta make sure we get everybody involved.
00:38 A lot of guys on the field that we wanna get the rock to and
00:41 Tyler's one of those guys too.
00:42 So with opportunity, a couple guys being hurt,
00:46 the dynamic in the room's changed.
00:49 I don't think anything's necessarily missing.
00:50 I think opportunity probably more than necessarily
00:54 anything he's doing or not doing.
00:57 He's doing a good job.
00:58 We ask him to do a lot.
00:59 So for a young guy who obviously he has the explosiveness,
01:04 good change of direction, all that stuff, catches the ball well.
01:07 But for a young guy to be able to come in and
01:09 the guy wasn't even a receiver very much long ago, right?
01:12 And so for him to be able to pick up all of his assignments and
01:16 be able to get in our run game and be able to do all that dirty work.
01:18 And then in the past game, be able to have us be able to line them up in
01:21 different positions.
01:22 I think it's now just hopefully as the season continues to go,
01:25 you see more opportunities show up for him.
01:29 Then rather than necessarily anything with him.
01:31 Yeah, it has unfortunately.
01:32 So yeah, it just kind of is what it is, right?
01:34 You gotta play the game.
01:37 I can remember a 2016 NFC Championship game,
01:39 we had to move Troy Guyon to right guard.
01:43 It was a defensive tackle.
01:44 So it happens in games.
