He was then traded to the Seattle Sea Dragons, who were not included in the XFL and USFL merger, and was drafted by the D.C. Defenders in the 2024 UFL Dispersal Draft. Moore was released by the Defenders on March 10, 2024, and signed with the San Antonio Brahmas on April 24, 2024, but did not play a game for them.
