Despite the team’s recent shortcomings, Carolina Panthers wideout DJ Moore has gotten back into his bag of late.
After failing to breach the 80-yard receiving mark in the seven weeks prior, he’s now totaled 187 yards on 10 catches over his past two outings. So, he’s probably hoping this hamstring issue isn’t, well, an issue that’ll keep him off that run on Sunday.
For now, at least three days out, Moore told reporters he’s getting there for the Week 15 matchup against the Buffalo Bills.
“It’s good. Still working on it,” he said on Thursday. “Was out at practice. Just taking it a day at a time.”
Moore also added that he believed he tweaked the hamstring while turning upfield following a reception in the loss to the Atlanta Falcons. Luckily, however, the egregious attack from the blue medical tent just moments after did not do any lasting damage to the receiver.
“I don’t know,” Moore said with a smile when asked exactly what happened on the sideline. “I just know I was trying to get under the tent, and next thing it just hit the back of my head and I was like ‘Oh well.'”
