Bears’ Darnell Mooney: ‘I want to be a known name’

Bears receiver Darnell Mooney will write down his goals for his second year — touchdowns, catches and yards — closer to the start of the regular season. But he already knows what he wants.

“This year I just want to be an explosive player,” he said. “I want to be dominant. I want to be a known factor, a known name.”

He said he doesn’t care about the adulation, just the respect. He wants there to be no confusion about what he brings to the field.

“It’s really an expectation for myself, knowing what I’m able to do,” he said.
