Former Patriots UDFA Kenny Moore signs four-year extension with Colts

A former Patriot signed a deal to become one of the highest-paid slot cornerbacks in the NFL on Thursday.

Can Pats' new TE make an impact on roster?

Kenny Moore joined the Patriots as an undrafted free agent in May 2017, but the 5-foot-9, 185-pounder was waived by the team during final cuts in September. Two years later, he inked a four-year extension with a max value of more than $36 million, per NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.

The #Colts and CB Kenny Moore have agreed to terms on a 4-year extension, source said, one that makes him the highest paid slot CB in the NFL on new money. He had a year left, then an RFA tag. This replaces the tag and more. He can also play outside, but is their starting slot.
