Rhule went on about the little things Moore has been doing, saying: "I love what he does without the football."
Rhule detailed Moore's ability to leave huddles early in practice, because he's so aware of down and distance and situations, that when he hears personnel groupings and formations he knows what play is coming. Rhule talked about his blocking, hoping it rubs off on players such as rookie Terrace Marshall Jr. (who didn't block on play on which Moore might have scored).
"I say all that; I don't know if people, even on our own team, recognize how much of a pro he is," Rhule said. "That's why he's having so much success."
Of course, those who have known Moore for years aren't surprised.
He was stout enough in college that he was in linebacker Jermaine Carter Jr.'s lifting group at Maryland — "He's one of those strong guys," Carter said with a note of respect.
"He's a receiver in a running back's body," Carter added. "When he catches the ball, he can make a lot of things happen, that's his best attribute."
Moore did that Sunday, bouncing off Cowboys linebacker Micah Parsons after a thunderous hit, somehow keeping his balance and continuing downfield.
