After spending time on special teams his freshman year, Moore took over as a starting safety in 2022. As a starter, Rod Moore is a two-time All-Big Ten honorable mention.
So far at Michigan, Moore has amassed 141 total tackles, along with six interceptions and 13 passes defended. Moore joined Michigan with only a 3-star 247 Sports Composite rating but turned himself into a key starter during his time here.
Heading into this year’s draft, Moore was projected to be a day two draft pick according to NFL Draft Buzz. However, Moore announced on social media today that he will return for his senior season at Michigan.
