Detroit also released DT Bruce Hector and signed S J.R. Reed to the practice squad. 

Moore, 26, went undrafted out of Ole Miss back in 2019. He later signed a rookie contract with the Lions and made the 53-man roster as a rookie.

The Lions re-signed Moore to a one-year contract worth up to $2.4 million with $800,000 guaranteed this past March. However, he was cut with an injury settlement coming out of the preseason and later signed with the Texans practice squad. 

In 2021, Moore appeared in all 17 games for the Lions and recorded 19 total tackles, one interception and one pass deflection.
