DJ Moore, More NFL Players React to Keenan Allen's Trade from Chargers to Bears

The Chicago Bears made waves Thursday night when they reportedly acquired star wide receiver Keenan Allen from the Los Angeles Chargers.

Jay Glazer of Fox Sports reported that the Bears sent a fourth-round draft pick to the Chargers in the deal.

Allen is coming off the sixth Pro Bowl selection of his 11-year career. His presence will undoubtedly benefit Chicago's quarterback in 2024, whether it be Justin Fields or a prospect the team selects with the No. 1 pick in this year's draft.

While fans were surprised by the Bears' move to acquire Allen, the deal also drew reactions from NFL players. Chicago wide receiver DJ Moore was among those who took to social media after learning about his new teammate:

Chargers veteran safety Derwin James wasn't as excited about losing a teammate like Allen:

Philadelphia Eagles cornerback Darius Slay declared the Bears have one of the best receiving corps in the league following the acquisition of Allen:

Allen's arrival continues a strong offseason for Chicago, which also added running back D'Andre Swift, tight end Gerald Everett and safety Kevin Byard, among others. In addition to owning the 2024 No. 1 pick after last year's trade with the Carolina Panthers, the Bears also have the No. 9 pick.

The 2024 offseason could be a monumental stretch that helps Chicago accelerate its rebuild and develop into a playoff contender.
