When news broke that OT Zach Banner was going to be placed on short-term IR to begin the 2021 season, it was assumed that rookie fourth-round draft pick Dan Moore Jr. would be expected to start Week 1 against the Buffalo Bills.

There were plenty of mistakes that have to be addressed in his game, but also some positives that show promise of what is to come from the rookie offensive tackle.
