Under Moore's tutelage in 2023, DeAndre Hopkins recorded 75 receptions for 1,057 yards (14.1 avg.), which are the most he has posted in a season since 2020.

In 2022, rookie wide receiver Treylon Burks ranked ninth among NFL rookies with 444 receiving yards on 33 catches. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine recorded a career-high 13 starts, while Robert Woods came back from a knee injury to lead the team with 53 catches and 527 yards in his first season in Tennessee.

Under Moore's tutelage from 2019 to 2021, wide receiver A.J. Brown led the Titans with 185 receptions, 2,995 receiving yards, a 16.2-yard receiving average and 24 touchdown catches. Since 1970, Brown was only the fourth NFL player to reach all of those numbers within his first three seasons, joining Randy Moss, Jerry Rice and John Jefferson. During those three seasons, Brown ranked seventh in the NFL in receiving average and tied for 10th in touchdown catches.

In 2021, Brown posted a team-best 63 receptions, 869 receiving yards and five touchdown catches, becoming the first player in franchise annals to begin his career with at least 50 receptions and five touchdown receptions in three consecutive seasons. Nick Westbrook-Ikhine set career highs with 38 receptions, 476 receiving yards and four touchdown catches, helping to make up for significant time lost in 2021 by the receiving corps due to injuries. Brown, Julio Jones, Marcus Johnson, Cameron Batson and Racey McMath all had at least one stint on injured reserve.

In 2020, Brown was selected to his first Pro Bowl after leading the team with 70 receptions, 1,075 receiving yards and 11 touchdown catches in 14 games (12 starts). He tied for fifth place in the NFL in touchdown receptions and joined Drew Bennett (11 in 2004) as the only players in the team's "Titans era" (since 1999) with 10 or more touchdown receptions in a season. Additionally, wide receiver Corey Davis set career highs with 984 receiving yards and five touchdowns and tied his career high with 65 catches.

In 2019, the Titans offense ranked fourth in the NFL in yards per play (6.12) and first in red zone efficiency (75.6 percent). Along the way, Moore helped Brown, a second-round draft pick, put together one of the best seasons by a rookie in franchise annals. Brown led the 2019 NFL rookie class in receiving yards (1,051), tied for the rookie lead in touchdown receptions (eight), and ranked fifth among rookies in receptions (52). Among all rookies in franchise history, Brown ranked third in receiving yards and fifth in receptions, and he tied for the third-highest receiving touchdown total. Among all NFL players in 2019—rookies and veterans— Brown finished second in receiving average (20.2), behind only the Los Angeles Chargers' Mike Williams (20.4).

Moore oversaw the development of a youthful group in 2018 that included Davis in his second year and third-year veteran Tajaé Sharpe. Davis led the offense with 65 receptions, 891 receiving yards and four touchdowns, seeing dramatic increases from his rookie campaign (34 catches for 375 yards). His yardage total ranked ninth among all AFC wide receivers.

Prior to arriving in Tennessee, Moore spent three seasons (2015-17) as the Oakland Raiders wide receivers coach. In Oakland, he worked with Amari Cooper and Michael Crabtree, who combined for 435 receptions, 5,446 receiving yards, 43 touchdowns and 17 100-yard games during their three seasons together. With seven touchdowns by Cooper and eight from Crabtree in 2017, the two became the first Raiders teammates since Tim Brown and Rick Dudley from 1997-99 to have at least five touchdown receptions apiece in three consecutive seasons. In 2016, Cooper (1,153 yards) and Crabtree (1,003) became the first pair of Raiders wide receivers to surpass 1,000 receiving yards in the same season since 2001. Cooper became only the third player in NFL history to surpass 1,000 receiving yards and 70 receptions in each of his first two seasons (2015-16) in the league, joining Odell Beckham Jr. and Marques Colston.

In his first season in Oakland, Moore was charged with overseeing the rookie development of Cooper, the team's first-round draft selection in 2015. Cooper set franchise rookie records for receptions (72), receiving yards (1,070) and 100-yard games (five), and his reception total was the highest by any NFL wide receiver 21 years old or younger. Additionally, firstyear player and former undrafted wide receiver Seth Roberts accounted for five touchdown receptions.

After coaching five seasons at the collegiate level, Moore joined the Buffalo Bills in 2014 to help mentor a youthful wide receiving corps. Moore helped rookie Sammy Watkins, the team's fourth-overall pick in the 2014 NFL Draft, total 65 receptions for 982 yards and six touchdowns, setting the team's rookie records for receptions and yards. Second-year receiver Robert Woods set new personal bests with 65 catches for 699 yards and five touchdowns, while another young receiver, Chris Hogan, set career highs with 41 receptions, 426 yards and four touchdowns.

As wide receivers coach for four years at Syracuse (2010-13), Moore helped the Orange to three bowl victories. Under his tutelage, wide receiver Alec Lemon finished his career ranked first in the Orange record books for all-time receptions (201) and second in all-time receiving yards (1,780).

Moore got his start in coaching at Montclair (N.J.) High School from 2002- 03, working with wide receivers, and in 2009, he became the wide receivers coach for Phoenix (Ariz.) Junior College. He also spent time working as a consultant for Protect Management and Athlete's Performance, training athletes for the NFL Draft, such as future draft picks Robert Meachem, Dwayne Bowe, Vernon Davis, Golden Tate and Arrelious Benn.

Moore played 12 years as a wide receiver in the NFL after being selected by the New York Jets in the first round of the 1990 Supplemental Draft. He spent five seasons with the New York Jets (1990-94) and seven years with the Arizona Cardinals (1995-2001). His career totals included 153 games, 146 starts, 628 receptions, 9,368 receiving yards and 49 touchdowns. He was named to the Pro Bowl following the 1994 and 1997 campaigns, the latter of which he led the NFL with 1,584 receiving yards en route to being named All-Pro.

A native of Hempstead, N.Y., Moore played collegiately at Syracuse from 1987-89, starting all three seasons. He set team records for receiving yards per game (75.8) and career touchdown receptions (22) while going to three consecutive bowl games. He was on Syracuse's undefeated (11-0-1) team in 1987. In 1999, he was named to Syracuse's All-Century Team.

He is married to Candice and has five children: son Satchel and daughters Dakota, Savoy, Meadow and Charlie.
