Moore made headlines for a productive preseason but has gotten off to a slow start in his rookie regular season. Entering Thursday night’s game, Moore had 15 catches for 146 yards. Moore’s first NFL touchdown came on a rushing score in Week 7 against the New England Patriots. We’ll see if Thursday night’s TD helps Moore get going.
The Colts lead the Jets 14-7 in the second quarter. The game is airing on FOX and the NFL Network.
