Atlanta Falcons receiver Rondale Moore has made a strong impression on head coach Raheem Morris.
quarterback Kirk Cousins dropped back to pass, looked left and fired a bullet to receiver Rondale Moore, who created space on a curl route and finished with a strong catch.
It is something he's had to do from the moment the Arizona Cardinals traded him to the Falcons for quarterback Desmond Ridder on March 14.When Falcons general manager Terry Fontenot called Moore's phone after finalizing the trade, he heard several rings before landing on voicemail. But the success Moore found against Morris didn't consistently translate. Through three professional seasons, Moore has made 135 receptions for 1,201 yards and three touchdowns but is yet to eclipse 450 receiving yards in a season. In 2023, he set career-lows with 40 catches for 352 yards and a score.
But the Falcons have a specific role for Moore, who has been used extensively on receiver screens. He's shown he can do more as a pure receiver, including catching a back-shoulder pass from rookie quarterback Michael Penix Jr. against former All-Pro cornerback A.J. Terrell to move the chains in seven-on-sevens.
