49ers Acquire WR Skyy Moore From Chiefs

Wide receiver Skyy Moore will join the San Francisco 49ers in a trade along with a 2027 seventh-round draft pick.

The Kansas City Chiefs will receive a 2027 sixth-round draft choice as part of the trade.

The 24-year-old looks to add depth to San Francisco’s injury-ravaged wide receiver position. One of those players includes Brandon Aiyuk, who is not expected to return until Week 6.

Jauan Jennings, who ended last season with the second-highest receiving yards for the 49ers, is dealing with a calf problem. Jordan Watkins and Jacob Cowing are also among the players dealing with injuries.

After being drafted in 2022 by the Chiefs, the team hoped Moore could replace the offensive threat of Tyreek Hill, who was just traded to the Miami Dolphins. However, Moore only started 11 games and made 43 receptions for Andy Reid‘s side in three seasons.

The former Western Michigan receiver appeared in three postseason games for the Chiefs, which included a fourth-quarter touchdown in Super Bowl LVII against the Philadelphia Eagles.

A move to Northern California could provide a fresh start for Moore, who is entering a team that’s buried by injuries for the wide receiver role.
