USA Today\u2019s Nick Brinkerhoff<\/a> suggests the Kansas City Chiefs<\/a> as an ideal landing spot for Indianapolis Colts cornerback Kenny Moore II. The veteran defensive back recently revealed interest in seeking a trade and potentially putting himself on general manager Brett Veach\u2019s radar.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey traded Trent McDuffie and lost Jaylen Watson in free agency. Kansas City can still find a new corner in the draft with one of its two first-round picks, or it can choose to invest in other areas of need,\u201d Brinkerhoff wrote. \u201cThe Chiefs still believe they can contend for a Super Bowl this season, which could be Travis Kelce\u2019s last. While a youth movement figures to be a priority, the only real priority is winning \u2013 and winning now.\u201d<\/p>\n

ESPN\u2019s Adam Schefter recently revealed<\/a> that the Colts and Moore have mutually agreed to seek a trade and a new home for the veteran cornerback who is entering the last year of his contract.<\/p>\n

During his career, Moore earned 2021 Pro Bowler honors and has collected 649 tackles, 21 interceptions, 11.5 sacks, six forced fumbles, 68 pass deflections, two fumble recoveries, and five touchdowns.<\/p>\n

Last season with the Colts in 14 games played (7 starts), Moore had 55 tackles, 1.5 sacks, 1 interception, and 2 forced fumbles. He missed three games due to an Achilles injury.<\/p>\n
