DJ Moore is a man who has proved himself in the gridiron multiple times. Even if the man is injured, his “really don’t care” attitude makes sure that he enters the field. The WR had the same mindset of the game over his health during the Bears‘ Week 9 matchup against the Cardinals. Moore got injured and went off the field, but his positive attitude made sure that he played and this was widely praised. Despite the Bears’ 29-9 loss, the fans instantly became a fan of the WR. And with the way he’s been performing, it’s safe to say the WR might be pulling in some good numbers.
What is DJ Moore’s salary?
With his experience, it is evident that DJ Moore definitely earns a lot of money. The man was the Carolina Panthers‘ first-round pick in 2018. And he initially signed a four-year contract worth $11.17 million. While the WR’s contract expired in 2022, he signed a three-year extension with the team. However, the Panthers, after re-signing, chose to trade him in between this deal in 2023. The Bears accepted the trade, and the team is offering the same amount as in the initial contract.
