Russell Wilson changed play to earn Moore $100K bonus

Seattle Seahawks wide receiver David Moore is taking home some extra money thanks to teammate Russell Wilson.

The Seahawks led the San Francisco 49ers 26-23 with 22 seconds remaining in Sunday's game, but rather than take a knee, the quarterback threw a pass to Moore, earning him a $100,000 contract bonus for reaching 35 receptions this season.

"We called that play because David had $100,000 if he gets that catch," Wilson said, according to Bob Condotta of the Seattle Times. "So you know, it's a blessing to be able to help his family and his daughter and all that stuff. It was part of the game, we wanted to get him that catch and so we were able to dial that up for him that last play."

Moore signed a non-guaranteed $2.13-million tender as a restricted free agent last offseason, but he restructured his contract in September, agreeing to a salary of $825,000.

It was Moore's first catch of the game, and his 35 receptions represent a career high for the fourth-year receiver.

"We were going to kneel it and then we ended up changing it," Wilson said. "(Quarterbacks coach Austin Davis) actually said, 'Hey, let's get it done; let's get it done.' ... So when we ended up calling it and I said, 'Dave, you're going to get the ball right here, here we go,' kind of winked at him. So that was pretty cool."
