The Carolina Panthers don’t need any more insults or injuries here in 2021. But, unfortunately, wideout DJ Moore got a little of both during the team’s latest debacle.
While getting his knee checked out on the sideline during the Panthers’ 29-21 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, Moore took an uncalled for shot from that dastardly blue tent. What’s your problem, blue tent?

Despite the best efforts from both the tent and his banged up knee, Moore did as he often does and toughed it out for the remainder of the game. He finished the outing tied with Robby Anderson for a team-high 84 receiving yards on six catches.
The fourth-year receiver has picked up the pace following what was a quiet four-game stretch prior to Week 12. Over his past two outings, Moore has totaled 187 yards on 10 grabs.
Luckily for that blue tent, the Panthers’ newly-minted nominee for the 2021 Walter Payton Man of the Year Award is obviously a very nice guy. So there was no retaliation on Moore’s part.
