A four-year letterman in football, Moore played as a defensive back and wide receiver for coach Knox. He was named All-State first-team by Cal-Hi Sports and was a member of Long Beach Press-Telegram Best in the West squad (No. 4). As a sophomore, he made 99 tackles and had eight interceptions. As a junior, recorded 122 tackles and seven interceptions.

He also made 15 catches for 339 yards and six scores on offense. He was selected to play in the U.S. Army All-Star Game.
Moore was also a letterman in track & field. He was a three-time league champ with bests of 50.14 seconds in the 400-meter dash and 22.21 seconds in the 200-meter dash.[1] As a senior, he finished third in the 400-meter event at the CIF L.A. City Section Finals with a time of 50.31 seconds.[2]
Moore was ranked No. 2 nationally and No. 1 in the West and in California at safety and was given five stars from Scout.com. He was a PrepStar Dream Team selection. He was also regarded as a four-star recruit by Rivals.com.

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, whose responsibility was to not let the receiver on his side of the field get behind him, was poorly-positioned and was caught back-pedaling as Jones went by him. He mistimed his jump as the ball went over his head, and then fell over as the pass was easily cradled by Jones, who then 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.
