Denver Broncos[]
The Denver Broncos selected Moore in the second round (45th overall) of the 2011 NFL Draft.[7] Moore made his regular season debut on September 12, 2011 and recorded four solo tackles in the Broncos season-opening 23-20 loss to the Oakland Raiders. Moore recorded his first career interception in Denver's week 4 49-23 loss to the Green Bay Packers as he picked off a deflected pass from Matt Flynn.
During the 2012-13 NFL Playoffs, Moore lost favor with Broncos management and fans due to a key gaffe during the Broncos game against the Baltimore Ravens in the Divisional round. Denver was leading Baltimore 35-28 with less than a minute left in the game. Baltimore lined up for what was essentially a Hail Mary towards the end zone. Joe Flacco unloaded a bomb to Jacoby Jones up on the right sideline. Moore was well-positioned to make an easy play on the ball but misjudged the trajectory and fell over, as the pass was completed Jones walked into the end zone for the game-tying touchdown. Baltimore would go on to win the game 38-35 in double overtime and eventually win Super Bowl XLVII.
