The NY Jets’ most tantalizing young weapon is set for 2022 breakout

There is a lot of optimism in New York Jets-land surrounding Elijah Moore. Moore flashed the kind of potential that was expected from him as the 34th overall pick.

Moore got off to a slow start in 2021. Through his first five games played, he had just 12 catches for 79 yards and zero touchdowns. Was this going to be yet another second-round offensive skill position player to bust, a notorious Jets’ bugaboo?

Then Moore turned it around. From Weeks 7 through 12, Moore had 34 catches for 459 yards and 5 touchdowns.
