Bears GM Talks Up Darnell Mooney
3 years agoChicago Bears general manager Ryan Poles was "blown away by the person" when he met wide receiver Darnell Mooney after taking the job. Mooney was the team's leading receiver in 2021 with 81 catches for 1,055 yards and four touchdowns in his second NFL season. "He's got a quiet confidence about him," Poles said. "He's hungry to be special. I'm always looking for guys that, they're just raising their own bar in terms of where they want to go. He wants to be special. You can feel that in him." Fellow receivers Allen Robinson II, Jakeem Grant Sr., Damiere Byrd and Marquise Goodwin are all free agents, so Mooney will have a significant role in Chicago's offense in 2022.
