Carolina Panthers wide receiver D.J. Moore will appear in court Oct. 2 after being cited for driving 113 mph in a 65-mph zone.

Moore was charged with speeding and speeding in a work zone over 80 mph.

"F---- that car is moving," Trooper H.L. Bautista wrote in the police report, according to Michael Gordon of the Charlotte Observer.

Panthers head coach Ron Rivera said Moore told the team about the incident and he was privately reprimanded.

"When it all happened, D.J. came to us right away and explained the situation. He was very remorseful. He understood," Rivera said to Jourdan Rodrigue of the Charlotte Observer. “We chastised him obviously. And he’s moving on. And it’s an opportunity to learn for him and for the other young guys. ‘Hey, you have a responsibility to the community.'"

Moore was selected 24th overall in the 2018 NFL Draft.
