According to Mike Garafolo, free agent CB Kenny Moore II is generating “significant interest” from a handful of teams, including the Lions.
Garafolo expects Moore to catch on with a team very soon. He was cut by the Colts this offseason in a salary-saving move after no trade partners emerged.
Detroit is reeling a little bit after giving up 71 points in two weeks, with the secondary a clear weakness for the Lions.
Moore, 31, wound up signing on with the Patriots as an undrafted free agent out of Valdosta State back in 2017. He signed a three-year, $1.66 million contract but was waived and later claimed off waivers by the Colts.
Moore re-signed with the Colts on a four-year, $33 million extension in 2019 and made a base salary of $6.795 million in the final year of that deal in 2023. Indianapolis re-signed him to a three-year deal worth $30 million in 2024.
However, he was released ahead of the final year of that deal in 2026.
In 2025, Moore appeared in 14 games for the Colts and made seven starts for them. He recorded 55 tackles, 1.5 sacks, two forced fumbles, an interception returned for a TD and six pass defenses.
