It is very easy to look at Elijah Moore‘s box score statistics and label him an early disappointment. The New York Jets‘ second-round pick has caught eight passes for 66 yards and zero touchdowns in four games. There are 216 players in the NFL who have more receiving yards than him.
Moore’s lackluster statistics are largely not his fault. As I showcased last week with a handful of examples on film, Moore has been creating separation and getting himself open all year. For one reason or another, the football just has not been getting to him.
