Now that the Tennessee Titans have signed a wide receiver to properly fill out the top of their depth chart (DeAndre Hopkins), one of the sneakier additions of the offseason has been wide receiver Chris Moore.
The Cincinnati product is coming off a career year in Houston, where he totaled 48 catches for 548 receiving yards and two touchdowns for the Houston Texans.
Moore isn’t a needle-mover by any means, but he’s more than capable of stepping up and adequately getting the job done whenever his number is called.
By all accounts, the Titans wide receiver has had a strong offseason, and it appears his efforts have caught the attention of his new head coach, Mike Vrabel.
Vrabel offered some strong praise when discussing Moore’s impact since joining the team, even going as far as stating that he would’ve loved to have him a few years ago.
#Titans HC Mike Vrabel: WR Chris Moore has been very professional. Glad we have him now, can play a number of spots. He doesn't get tired, can help on special teams. I've enjoyed having him around here

The veteran wideout has certainly been making noise as of late. Just the other day, he popped up on the Titans’ account on the platform formerly known as Twitter after a beautiful one-handed snag on a deep pass from Ryan Tannehill.

He then followed up that moment with another solid day on Saturday, which was highlighted by a 75-yard touchdown pass from second-year signal caller, Malik Willis, who had thrown a pick on the previous play.
What a sequence at #Titans camp.
Rashad Weaver drops into coverage and intercepts Malik Willis during #Titans 11-on-11s. Defense goes wild.
Next play, Willis delivers a 75-yard TD deep ball to Chris Moore.

Barring some type of dramatic development, it’s a relatively safe bet that the Titans’ veteran wideout is on track to earn himself a roster spot unless he completely falls apart over the coming weeks. Vrabel’s comments only solidify that notion.
