DJ Moores injury status revealed after leaving Bills Week 2 win early

The Bills appear to have avoided the worst with DJ Moore.Moore is believed to have suffered an AC joint sprain in his left shoulder after leaving Thursday night’s 41-31 win over the Lions, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.The injury is not considered serious, although Moore’s status for Buffalo’s Week 3 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers remains uncertain.Schefter noted that Moore, who was traded to the Bills this offseason, has a chance to play in Week 3, but that it isn’t a “lock” either.The update is encouraging on the surface, given that Moore’s injury looked awkward, which initially raised concerns about the severity of the injury on social media from people watching “Thursday Night Football.”Moore, 29, went down late in the second quarter after diving for a Josh Allen pass in the end zone while being guarded by Lions defensive back Rock Ya-Sin.The veteran receiver landed hard on his left shoulder and immediately reached toward his shoulder and collarbone area while remaining on the field.The Bills initially listed Moore as questionable to return with a shoulder injury and stinger before ruling him out for the remainder of the game after halftime.Head coach Joe Brady did not provide an update on Moore’s condition immediately following the win.Moore didn’t record a reception before leaving Thursday’s game, and finished the contest with minus-one rushing yard.Given that the game was played on Thursday, Moore will have extra time to recover from the injury prior to the Bills’ Week 3 contest on Sept.27, when they will host the Chargers.Moore made an immediate impact during his Bills debut last week, catching five passes for 100 yards and a touchdown in Buffalo’s season-opening win over the Texans.He arrived in Buffalo with a fifth-round pick from the Bears in exchange for a second-round selection.Moore, drafted No.
