NFL Wide Receiver Elijah Moore powers through intense gym workout
Elijah Moore spent his last season in instability, searching for steady ground. After his one-year deal with the Buffalo Bills fell apart, Moore has now entered the new NFL offseason with the Philadelphia Eagles, and his offseason training is showing just how much he wants to prove himself.
Ahead of the 2026-27 season, Moore has shown how he is attacking his new signing! On Wednesday, the NFL Wide Receiver shared recent pictures of his training sessions on Instagram.
The first few pictures shows how NFL athletes enhance their grip strength: Moore is seen looping a towel over a rod and pulling against it rather than relying on a standard handle.

As seen on his IG post, his workouts particularly included a lot of speed training, which helps improve athletes' VO2 max levels. The workouts included sprints, skater sprints, some shadow boxing work, and a lot of jumps (lateral and hurdles).
The kinds of exercises performed are often used to activate fast-twitch muscles and improve hand-eye coordination, which is important for NFL athletes and even more so for a receiver.
The Eagles are already crowded with receivers such as DeVonta Smith, rookie Makai Lemon, and offseason addition Dontayvion Wicks, and Moore has a one-year deal that gives him little room for a slow start.
The pictures paint a story where Moore is training quite differently this offseason, and August sure is not going to be a quiet month for him.
Elijah Moore faces a defining August in a crowded Eagles Receiver room
At the Eagles, Elijah Moore reunites with an old ally, whom he calls his own blood: A.J. Brown. For Moore, what the team has signed him for can only improve with known faces with whom he already shares camaraderie.
"I wouldn't even call it a friendship. It's family," Moore told ESPN about Brown in 2022. "The things we've been through, the things we talk about, it has real substance. That's someone who is connected to me in a way that's more than … He's blood."
In the large scheme of things, Moore is more valuable because of his speed and agility as the Eagles revamped their wide receiver room around DeVonta Smith, Dontayvion Wicks, Makai Lemon, and several other competitors.
He has a very distinct skill set that he can offer Philadelphia to make their offense more flexible. Moore has to establish a relationship on the field with the Eagles' starting quarterback, Jalen Hurts.
Moore can be especially useful in creating formations and working from the slot. A lot more than being just a veteran receiver is expected out of him.
