Hardman got more o pportunity due to injuries. As we saw with Skyy, he also made the most of his chance when Juju was injured.
To be fair to Hardman, he’s got elite caliber speed which makes him more dangerous than someone like Skyy. But there is a place for Skyy in the offense.
They need to have Skyy take Watson’s snaps next year. There’s no excuse for them not to now.

In 4 games where injuries increased Moore's role he got 19 targets for 145 yards; that's a far cry from what Hardman did with his injury opportunities. And that's to say nothing of the 300 yards on 18 targets that Hardman generated
outside of his injury reps.
Hardman was simply better. By a fair amount. And took far more heat during his rookie season than Moore has taken during his. And that's without Hardman accounting for
six turnovers.
Yes, there's a place long-term for Moore in this offense. That doesn't diminish the fact that he's done next to nothing to help this team this year and on balance has done far more harm than good.
