Moore will now back up Chad Henne, who will start in place of Patrick Mahomes while the Supr Bowl MVP gets rest week 17.
In addition, defensive back Deandre Baker has been activated from the practice squad as a COVID-19 replacement, while starting linebacker Anthony Hitchens remains on the COVID-19/Reserve list.
The Super Bowl Champs' last activation was wide receiver Gehrig Dieter ,who was activated from the practice squad. Lastly, Kansas City announced that they have waived tight end Ricky Seals-Jones.
