Moore: Rookie to watch

He made an SI list. Now he just has to make the team!

Devin Moore, RB/KR (undrafted), Colts

Year-in, year-out, the Colts manage to find players otherwise forgotten, thrown to the scrap heap or pigeonholed as an unlikely NFL contributor because of size or some other factor. Moore was all of that. On the Carolina and Seattle practice squads last year, Moore has found a home in his hometown of Indianapolis.

At 5-9, Moore’s size limited prospects, then an inability to make plays despite great speed left his career hanging in the balance. But in the Colts’ system, Moore has excelled, returning a punt 49 yards, totaling 32 yards on four kickoff returns and showing flashes of breakaway ability in a preseason game against the Bills.
