Professional career
[edit source]Pre-draft
[edit source]Once considered as one of the most promising linebacker prospects in college football. Moses' lingering knee issues—including his 2019 ACL tear and partial meniscus tear in 2020 affected his pre-draft stock immensely. Moses did not participate in Alabama's pro-day testing as he had undergone knee surgery to repair his torn meniscus and instead only attended personal interviews with NFL teams. Ultimately some teams took Moses off of their draft boards beceause some evaluators believed that he had lost some of his explosiveness and athletic ability. [12] [13]
