San Francisco 49ers cornerback Emmanuel Moseley received an extra $500,519 in combined performance-based and veteran bonuses while rookie linebacker Dre Greenlaw received $339,981 as performance-based bonus, according to multiple reports.
The performance-based pay program is a collectively-bargained benefit that compensates all players, including rookies, based upon their playing time and salary levels. As Wagoner reports, Moseley's payment is the 17th-highest based on the pool of money available.
The 49ers recently tendered a one-year contract to Moseley, an exclusive-rights free agent, ensuring he remains with the team in 2020.
The 49ers signed Moseley, 23, as an undrafted free agent out of Tennessee in 2018. He registered 50 combined tackles, eight passes defensed, and an interception through 16 games in 2019.
The 49ers made Greenlaw, 22, a fifth-round selection out of Arkansas last year. He registered 92 combined tackles, a sack, two passes defensed, and an interception through 16 games and 11 starts in 2019.
Moseley played 589 defensive snaps this past season while Greenlaw took part in 730.

49ers: Dre Greenlaw's Uprising from Childhood Adversity

LB Dre Greenlaw is currently known as the hero who capped off the NFL's 100th year by stopping Seahawks TE Jacob Hollister at the goal line, crowning the San Francisco 49ers as NFC West champions. It's easy to root for any player who puts the team in the win column, but it's what he's overcome off the field that's made him a player who is impossible not to love.
Growing up, Dre didn't really have stability. His mother never held a stable job, and his father was not very involved in the family. He initially lived with his two parents, along with all eleven of his siblings. However, his parents eventually separated, consequently splitting up all of Dre's siblings as well. The father took care of five siblings while the mother took care of seven children, including Dre. This

The San Francisco 49ers boasted the league's best pass defense last year, which was led by veteran cornerback Richard Sherman. He didn't do it alone, though. The group, consisting of Emmanuel Moseley opposite Sherman, and K'Waun Williams covering in the slot, earned a combined Pro Football Focus grade of 89.2 between the three players. That was good enough to rank it No. 2 on the analytics site's list of the NFL's best cornerback trios (h/t to Jeff Deeney).

The NFL is canceling Weeks 1 and 4 of the preseason, according to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk. The league is reportedly expected to announce the decision on Thursday.
"The move was driven by two primary factors," writes Florio. "First, teams who will be playing preseason games on the road won't want to move that many people. Second, given that no teams had on-field practice sessions in the offseason, coaches would rather have the extra time to work with their teams, and that will happen if they don't have to worry about two extra preseason games."
For the 49ers, this will mean the elimination of the team's August 15 road game against the Denver
