Physical, tackling-first NIU safety who has long been a reliable playmaker
Moore’s calling card is consistency and range: at NIU, he was a high-volume tackler and proved disruptive in the secondary, leading the team with 99 tackles in one season and adding 12 pass breakups, which shows both run support and coverage value[1][5]. ESPN lists him as a safety with 172 solo tackles, 4 forced fumbles, and 6 interceptions, underscoring a defender who can finish plays and create turnovers[3]. At 5-foot-9 and 197 pounds, he fits as an energetic, assignment-sound defensive back who brings production, toughness, and a proven feel for the ball[2][3].
