ESPN and NFL Network reported that Moore's new
contract features $82.6 million guaranteed.
After the Carolina Panthers traded him to the Bears in March
2023, Moore set career highs in receptions (96), receiving yards
(1,364) and total touchdowns with nine (eight receiving, one
rushing) during his first season with Chicago.
Only three players have had more receiving yards in a single
season for the Bears.
Chicago also got four draft picks in the trade for Moore, which
gave Carolina the No. 1 overall pick in the 2023 draft. The
Panthers went on to select quarterback Bryce Young out of
Alabama.
Moore, 27, will be headlining a new and improved receiving corps
that now features Keenan Allen and Rome Odunze. The Bears traded
for Allen in March and selected Odunze out of Washington with
the ninth overall pick in April's draft.
In 97 career games (90 starts) with the Panthers (2018-22) and
Bears (2023), Moore has hauled in 460 catches for 6,565 yards
and 29 TDs.
