D.J. Moore revealed he shockingly fuels his offseason training with Mountain Dew and cigars

D.J. Moore is one of the NFL’s best receivers, point blank. In 2023, he enjoyed career highs in yards (1,364), catches (96), and touchdowns (eight). He was every bit the superstar playmaker that the Chicago Bears needed for their offense.

And apparently, Moore is so dominant despite barely taking care of his body during the offseason.

During a new episode of The 33rd Team’s podcast with Amon-Ra St. Brown and his brother Equanimeous St. Brown, the pair talked to Moore about his offseason training approach. According to the gifted wideout, he barely does any workouts. In fact, in Moore’s words, he more or less sticks to drinking Mountain Dew and smoking cigars until it’s time to report for team activities in the spring.

Honestly, it’s kind of wild that Moore is so good despite his training neglect:

Imagine the type of numbers Moore would put up with the Bears if he perhaps ate more salads. Or maybe just even cut off on all the cigars. But maybe that’s just what works for Moore. When it’s time to relax, he’s taking a load off, understanding the inevitable punishment of an NFL season.

Or maybe I’m just being charitable to a professional athlete who really enjoys his time off.
