San Francisco made Moody a third-round pick out of Michigan, a selection accompanied by much criticism. Analysts didn't like the drafting of a kicker with such a high pick.
Moody missed both of his field-goal attempts in the 49ers' preseason opener against the Las Vegas Raiders but hit on his only extra-point try. This past weekend against the Denver Broncos, he connected on all three field-goal attempts but missed an extra point.
The Niners open their regular-season schedule on the road against the Pittsburgh Steelers on September 10.
