NFL Writer selects Chiefs as ideal landing spot for veteran Colts DB

USA Today’s Nick Brinkerhoff suggests the Kansas City Chiefs as an ideal landing spot for Indianapolis Colts cornerback Kenny Moore II. The veteran defensive back recently revealed interest in seeking a trade and potentially putting himself on general manager Brett Veach’s radar.

“They traded Trent McDuffie and lost Jaylen Watson in free agency. Kansas City can still find a new corner in the draft with one of its two first-round picks, or it can choose to invest in other areas of need,” Brinkerhoff wrote. “The Chiefs still believe they can contend for a Super Bowl this season, which could be Travis Kelce’s last. While a youth movement figures to be a priority, the only real priority is winning – and winning now.”

ESPN’s Adam Schefter recently revealed that the Colts and Moore have mutually agreed to seek a trade and a new home for the veteran cornerback who is entering the last year of his contract.

During his career, Moore earned 2021 Pro Bowler honors and has collected 649 tackles, 21 interceptions, 11.5 sacks, six forced fumbles, 68 pass deflections, two fumble recoveries, and five touchdowns.

Last season with the Colts in 14 games played (7 starts), Moore had 55 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 1 interception, and 2 forced fumbles. He missed three games due to an Achilles injury.
