Panthers agreed to terms with CB D.J. Moore, formerly of the Bears, on a one-year contract.
The ball-hawking four-year veteran was the Bears' nickel back for most of the past three seasons, but was demoted late in 2012. He should serve in the same capacity in Carolina. Moore's signing likely means Captain Munnerlyn will be allowed to walk in free agency. In the slot since 2010, Moore has notched 118 tackles and 10 interceptions over his past 42 games.

Moore could be a replacement for Captain Munnerlyn at nickel back. A feisty slot corner with playmaking ability, Moore turns 26 years old in four days.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

The Charlotte Observer expects the Panthers to show interest in free agent CB D.J. Moore.

Moore was demoted to the Bears' fourth corner in 2012 and was told earlier this week that he won't be re-signed. The Panthers have one of the worst cap situations in the NFL, so they'll be targeting second-tier free agents like Moore.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

The Bears have informed free agent CB D.J. Moore that he is not in the team's future plans.

Moore will not be re-signed. He was demoted to the fourth corner in 2012 and was even a healthy inactive for a couple of contests. Moore does have playmaking ability, with ten interceptions over the last three seasons.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

The Chicago Tribune does not expect free agent CB D.J. Moore to re-sign with the Bears.

Moore was benched last season, falling behind nickel corner Kelvin Hayden. With defensive backs coach Jon Hoke still in town, it's unlikely the new regime will change its tune. Moore is our No. 38 corner available in free agency.

Bears declared CB D.J. Moore, QB Nathan Enderle, TE Andre Smith, G Ricky Henry, DT Matt Toeaina, DE Chauncey Davis, and LB Jabara Williams inactive for Week 11 against the Chargers.

Nickelback Moore suffered a serious ankle sprain in practice this week. Corey Graham is expected to fill in against the Bolts. Anthony Adams is starting at nose tackle with Toeaina out.

Bears nickelback D.J. Moore will reportedly sit out Sunday's game against the Chargers while nursing a sprained ankle.

Corey Graham and Zack Bowman are options to see increased snaps this week. The Bears typically play nickel about 50 percent of the time, but expect to use the package more against Philip Rivers.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

Bears signed fourth-round CB D.J. Moore to a four-year contract.

Moore is expected to battle Nate Vasher for the starting right corner job. Though on the small side with subpar speed, Moore showed tremendous ball skills at Vanderbilt and is a good fit for the Bears' zone scheme.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

Fourth-round pick D.J. Moore is being given a chance to start at right cornerback for the Bears.

He'll push Nate Vasher. GM Jerry Angelo likened Moore to Vasher -- another original fourth-round pick -- because of his ball skills. Moore can't run like Vasher, but could prove a more durable option opposite Peanut Tillman.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

Bears selected Vanderbilt CB D.J. Moore with the No. 119 overall pick in the NFL Draft.

At only 5'8 with a 4.6 forty, Moore is lacking in the measurables department. His lack of ideal speed is less concerning in Chicago's zone system, though, and Moore was a two-time first-team conference pick in the SEC. He'll push Corey Graham and Nate Vasher at right corner in training camp.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

Vanderbilt CB D.J. Moore ran forty times of 4.57 and 4.59 at the Commodores' Pro Day.

Moore, who is also undersized at 5'9/192, didn't improve on his 4.58 from the Combine. The early entrant is probably a second-round prospect now.

D.J. Moore - DB - Panthers

Vanderbilt CB D.J. Moore will forgo his senior season with the Commodores and enter the 2009 NFL Draft.

Moore is listed at 5'10/182 and if he intends to be a first-round pick he'd better not measure any shorter at February's Combine. A three-year starter, Moore was a productive tackler at Vandy and offers terrific ball skills. The 21-year-old picked off 12 passes in his final two seasons in college, which is highly impressive considering he was rarely thrown at after his sophomore year.
