In his first season with the Falcons in 2024, Mooney nearly missed his second career 1,000-yard receiving season by recording 64 catches for 992 yards and five touchdowns with Kirk Cousins and Michael Penix.<\/p>\n
With the Falcons making a quarterback change from Cousins to Penix as a full-time starter, Atlanta failed to see a receiver reach 1,000 yards in 2025 due to inconsistent play under center. Mooney’s 2025 stat line took a dip as he caught 32 passes for 443 yards and one score.<\/p>\n
Mooney will now get to work with Dart, Malik Nabers<\/a>, Cam Skattebo<\/a> and Isaiah Likely<\/a> in John Harbaugh’s first season in New York.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"In his first season with the Falcons in 2024, Mooney nearly missed his second career 1,000-yard receiving season…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":163578,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[8451,2670,67424,16699,9,2683,11,10,12,6676],"class_list":["post-163577","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-new-york","tag-around-the-nfl","tag-atlanta-falcons","tag-darnell-mooney","tag-free-agency","tag-new-york","tag-new-york-giants","tag-new-york-headlines","tag-new-york-news","tag-news","tag-no-minute"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/163577","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=163577"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/163577\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/163578"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=163577"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=163577"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ny\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=163577"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
