The NFL is mourning the loss of Rondale Moore, a player whose light on and off the field was extinguished far too soon at just 25 years old.
Rondale was the definition of an underdog who became a NFL player.
Drafted in the 2nd round out of Purdue, he arrived in the league as one of the most explosive athletes in his class.
But beyond the blazing speed and the iconic plays, Rondale was cherished for the man he was.
His former coach Jeff Brohm called him a "complete joy" and the "ultimate competitor" who never backed down from a challenge.
Even as he faced a brutal stretch of injuries over the last two years, his work ethic and infectious smile remained his trademark.
He was a humble, soft-spoken leader who loved his family and his Indiana roots above all else.
As statements pour in from the Vikings, Cardinals, and Falcons, it’s clear that his impact reached far beyond the stat sheet.
This loss is felt deeply by teammates, coaches, and fans who recognized him not just as a great player, but as a truly special person.
Our hearts, thoughts, and prayers are with Rondale’s family and loved ones during this incredibly difficult time.
Rest in peace, Rondale.
You will be remembered as a legend.
