Now the Indianapolis Colts cornerback has a starting job and a lucrative new contract.Less than three years after entering the league as an undrafted rookie Kendall Sheffield Jersey , Moore was rewarded by the Colts with a four-year deal that will keep their top three cornerbacks together through 2021.Financial details were not immediately available, but NFL Network reported the deal would make Moore the leagues highest-paid slot cornerback.Theres a lot of odds against you, but its possible (to make it), he said Friday after the teams final offseason workout. They believe in me.Its a remarkable ascension for Moore, who didnt play high school football until his senior year. That came at the urging of a friend, who lost his starting job when he was booted off the team. Moore considered joining the Air Force after high school, but played at his hometown college of Valdosta State in Georgia. He appeared in 46 games, including 10 as a freshman.But at 5-foot-9 Moore was overlooked by NFL scouts.Instead John Cominsky Jersey , he signed with New England as an undrafted rookie in May 2017, was released during Septembers final cutdown and claimed by the Colts off waivers the next day after a team scout convinced general manager Chris Ballard that Moores long arms made up for his lack of height.He made an immediate impression.Moore recorded 37 tackles in 16 games as a rookie. Last season, he won the starting job, led the team with three interceptions and finished fifth with 77 tackles.That was all Ballard and coach Frank Reich needed to see.Kenny is the consummate pro, Reich said. Its not only a high level of play, its the consistency of play that I really think he embodies. We saw his play-making ability last year on the ball, sack, blitzer Qadree Ollison Jersey , but just really the way he brings that energy every day out at practice. And in the community, hes a leader.Moore couldve become a restricted free agent in March, but apparently Ballard didnt want to take the risk.So he stuck to his philosophy of re-signing Colts players first, even after using a second-round draft pick on cornerback Rock Ya-Sin in April. Ballard has given three players Moore, punter Rigoberto Sanchez and long snapper Luke Rhodes contract extensions during the last week.He has made it clear that those three guys are what being a Colt is all about, Reich said. Im so excited for them. I think that sends the right message. Those are the kinds of guys you want around for the long term.Keeping Moore should give the secondary some long-term continuity.Pierre Desir, the other starting cornerback, signed a three-year deal in March Ed Oliver Jersey , Ya-Sin already has signed his three-year rookie contract and Moore has his big deal, too.Along the process, I grew a passion for (football), I grew a love for it, he said. I learned how to believe in myself, to trust myself, in my own ability. The National Football League always features a number of different transactions throughout the regular season. But the first few weeks of the offseason lead to speculation of a number of different changes before next year. Teams who didnt make the playoffs in 2016 are likely going to make some drastic changes in an effort to rebuild their rosters.While no players have been cut, traded or signed through free agency yet Cody Ford Jersey , teams have already made some big changes. The San Francisco 49ers hired former NFL cornerback John Lynch as the teams general manager. They have now officially hired Kyle Shanahan as their head coach after his success as the offensive coordinator for the Atlanta Falcons.The 49ers are likely going to cut some underperforming players and hope to make some trades. But San Francisco isnt the only team looking to make moves before the 2017 season. Springtime is a very busy time for teams as they prepare for the NFL Draft. New players are going to need contracts. Those new, exciting first round draft choices are going to make those underperforming veterans look expendable.But some teams might have players who are doing so well, other teams might be envious. This often leads to teams making trades for established players in exchange for draft picks. Either way, there are going to be a number of moves between now and the start of training camp this summer.The following are eight NFL players who will likely be cut this coming offseason and another seven who will be traded to another team.
