Bears
Bears WR D.J. Moore said that learning a new position has been daunting for him, but noted that’s why he gets paid the big bucks. He has been lining up in the backfield to give the team’s offense a different look.
‘‘Just be an athlete at this point,’’ Moore said, via Patrick Finley of the Chicago Sun-Times. ‘‘Just do it all and just attack it.’’
