LAS VEGAS — Wide receiver DJ Moore wants Justin Fields to remain the quarterback of the Chicago Bears.
There is a question about what the team will do with the No. 1 pick in the upcoming NFL draft. USC quarterback Caleb Williams is expected to be the top pick to the Bears or the highest bidder.
"I've been a big advocate for Justin. I've seen his growth," Moore said, suggesting that Williams will go to the Washington Commanders. "I've seen what he can do on the field and off the field. Definitely on the field, his growth is amazing."
In his one season with Chicago, Moore had a career-high 1,364 receiving yards and eight touchdowns. He was part of last year's trade when the Bears sent the No. 1 overall pick to the Carolina Panthers, who selected quarterback Bryce Young.
Fields had a career-best 2,562 passing yards with 16 touchdowns and nine interceptions last season. He added 657 rushing yards and four touchdowns on the ground. He missed four games with a dislocated thumb.

The Bears finished 7-10. They collapsed against the Denver Broncos Week 4, then upset the NFC North champion Detroit Lions in Week 14. They haven't been to the playoffs since 2020 and haven't won in the postseason since 2010.
Moore said amid the offseason uncertainty, he focuses on what he can control.
"I'm just riding everything as it goes on social media, just like everybody else," he said. "I don't ask too many questions, 'cause I don't want to be on nobody's bad side. So I just stick around and just watch it unfold."
