Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Skyy Moore has been placed on injured reserve due to a core muscle injury. This means he'll miss at least four games and will only be allowed to return on Nov. 24 ahead of the team's outing against the Carolina Panthers.
After news broke of his being placed on IR, Chiefs fans seemed anything but concerned. In fact, many of them seemed relieved. One fan said Moore turned out to be a "bust."
"What a bust he’s turned out to be. Sucks"

Another fan said Skyy Moore was lucky to be playing in the NFL at all.
"He is lucky to be part of an NFL team"
Other fans also shared the sentiment that the Chiefs were better off without Moore.
"The actual worst WR in the NFL. They just got better. No offense to the Moore family," one fan said.
"bro is on IR for being a**" another fan said.
"Bs they just don’t wanna play him," another fan said.
"I hope he never plays another snap," another fan said.
Moore was selected 54th overall in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft. The Chiefs had high expectations of Moore, hoping he could help fill a Tyreek Hill-sized hole in the wide receivers department after the Chiefs moved him to the Miami Dolphins.
However, he has failed to make a noticeable contribution to the team's offense. In his rookie year, he recorded 250 receiving yards and 22 receptions without a touchdown.
Who will replace Skyy Moore?
Nikko Remigio is the frontrunner to replace Moore. He has special teams experience and is on the team's practice squad..
By moving Moore out of the active roster, the team may also be trying to make more room for DeAndre Hopkins, whom the Chiefs acquired in a blockbuster trade with the Titans in exchange for a conditional fifth-round pick.
