Pierce: 16 games, 41 rec, 593 yds, 2 TDs

Moore: 16 games, 22 rec, 250 yds, 0 TDs

Jones, Jr: 12 games, 7 rec, 107 yds, 1 TD

Tolbert: 8 games, 2 rec, 12 yds, 0 TDs

Bell: 16 games, 24 rec, 214 yds, 0 TDs

Gray: 13 games, 1 rec, 10 yds, 0 TDs

Ezukanma: 1 game, 1 rec, 3 yds, 0 TDs

Doubs: 13 games, 42 rec, 425 yds, 3 TDs

Austin: 0 games, 0 rec, 0 yds, 0 TDs

Shakir: 14 games, 10 rec, 161 yds, 1 TD

Washington: 15 games, 4 rec, 2 yds, 0 TDs

Once D Coordinators got some film on him and realized his route running limitations he pretty much disappeared. 197 yards for the final 8 games of the season, and 86 of those were in the blowout loss to Dallas. I know it's just preseason, but it doesn't look like he's improved at all. Straight down the sideline, no separation, and dropped passes. He was playing against 2nd and 3rd stringers in Philly, and he still couldn't get any separation.
