Is Jets' Elijah Moore the NFL's most ignored wide receiver?

PITTSBURGH -- A look at what's happening around the New York Jets:

1. Less for Moore: After a promising rookie season, Elijah Moore's production is down through three games. This can be traced to a number of factors, but these two loom largest: A subtle shift in his role and the emergence of rookie Garrett Wilson (32 targets, 18 catches, 214 yards).

Moore has run an NFL-high 150 pass routes but has been targeted only 21 times. That's a target/route ratio of 14%, which ranks 150th. There's another way to look at it: He has run more yardage on untargeted routes (1,882 yards) than any player in the league.
