DJ Moore got the highest ever extension from the Bears
According to ESPN, Moore and the Bears have agreed to a four-year, $110 million contract agreement that includes an $86.2 million guarantee and keeps Moore in Chicago until the 2029 season.
Moore has two years left on the contract he signed with the Carolina Panthers. Moore becomes the first receiver in NFL history to have the first ten years of his career covered by guaranteed contracts.
Moore had two years left on the extension he signed at the end of his rookie deal with the Carolina Panthers and was slated to become a free agent in 2026. He is presently under contract with the Bears until the 2029 season and leads a wide receiver group that includes 12-year veteran Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze.
Moore's contract was breached by the Bears, even though he still had two years remaining on his initial deal with the Panthers, which moved over when he was traded to Chicago. But general manager Ryan Poles wanted to act swiftly to secure the team's top wide receiver.
Moore's $110 million contract ranks him as the fifth-highest-paid receiver in the NFL. He is behind only Justin Jefferson, Davante Adams, Tyeeek Hill, and Amon-Ra St. Brown. His $27.5 million average yearly value ranks him eighth in the NFL, slightly ahead of Cooper Kupp.
Moore, 27, undoubtedly earned the contract after setting career highs in receptions (96), receiving yards (1,364), and total touchdowns with nine (eight receiving, one rushing) in his debut season with Chicago. Only three Bears players have accumulated more receiving yards in a single season.
At the time of the deal, Chicago general manager Ryan Poles stated that he was "over the moon" to obtain Moore from the Panthers and was concerned that the receiver might not be available if the Bears waited until March 10, 2023, when the move was consummated.
