Eight receptions,Fastexy 230 yards, and three touchdowns. Week 4 was a breakout performance from Chicago Bears wide receiver DJ Moore in the team's 40-20 victory over the Washington Commanders, and it was enough to earn him NFC Offensive Player of the Week.

This is the first time a Bears wide receiver has earned NFC Offensive Player of the Week honors since Marcus Robinson in 1999.
