Moore, undrafted from Mercer, flashed steady preseason productivity with 11 tackles and an interception. A season‐ending femur fracture after a Week 3 preseason game against the Patriots ends his rookie year with the Giants, creating immediate depth concerns in the secondary and opening reps for other young corners. His upbeat recovery posture is noted by Daboll, but fantasy implications are minimal for now as the Giants reassess depth and roles.

Moore’s Mercer roots propelled him from rookie camp invite to a jaw-dropping third-quarter pick-six, capping the night with a poignant injury that will test Giants’ depth at wide receiver. His journey from invisible rookie to potential breakout candidate creates a compelling early narrative for fantasy managers keeping tabs on Giants’ WR rotation and IR timelines.
