The Arizona Cardinals - unfortunately - haven't received much from Rondale Moore, who is entering his third season in the league. 

The Cardinals loved what they saw out of Moore during his time at Purdue. Moore separated himself (literally) thanks to his eye-opening speed that could stretch defenses and give Arizona a weapon to deploy in numerous ways out of the slot.

However, under the guidance of Kliff Kingsbury, Moore rarely flashed what made him such a game-changer at the college level. 

New head coach Jonathan Gannon and new offensive coordinator Drew Petzing hope to utilize the speedster better than before, and there's some belief that will happen properly this year.

PFF Says Moore is due for a breakout season in 2023:

Cardinals WR Rondale Moore Labeled Breakout Candidate 

"While the focus was on Marquise Brown as the main beneficiary of DeAndre Hopkins‘ release in Arizona, don’t sleep on a potential Rondale Moore breakout in 2023," wrote Gordon McGuinness. 

"After missing the first three weeks of the 2022 season, Moore was on a 17-game pace of 99 receptions for 1,005 yards, before his season came to an end in Week 11. The primary issue for him might be quarterback play early in the year with Kyler Murray likely to still be out, but the Cardinals figure to trail often in games, so targets should be available."

Through two seasons, Moore has amassed 95 receptions for 849 yards and two touchdowns. He's still just 22-years-old and could very well make the most out of an opportunity that no longer has DeAndre Hopkins ahead of him. 

He'll have to compete with names such as Marquise Brown, Greg Dortch, Zach Pascal and Michael Wilson for playing time this season.
