The Denver Broncos drafted safety Rahim Moore in the second-round of the 2011 NFL draft with the hopes of one day becoming a true star at the safety position. After spending three seasons in the Mile High City, Moore signed a three-year $12 million dollar contract with the Houston Texans.
Moore’s opportunity with the Texans came to a crossroads after he was benched after a week 7 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. He was released by the organization on March 3, 2016 and was on the free agent market.
The Cleveland Browns needed a “veteran” safety to help fill the losses of Tashaun Gipson, who signed with the Jacksonville Jaguars and Donte Whitner, who was released a few weeks ago.
