BREAKING: Vikings WR Rondale Moore Dead At Age 25

Vikings wide receiver Rondale Moore has died at age 25.

According to WHAS11, New Albany police chief Todd Bailey said that Moore was found in a garage with a “suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound.” Moore’s cause of death is under further investigation.

Moore signed with the Vikings last March, and spent the entire 2025 season on injured reserve after suffering a season-ending knee injury during the preseason. He missed the entire two seasons due to injury.

A 2021 second-round pick, Moore began his career with the Cardinals, where he tallied 135 receptions for 1,201 yards and three touchdowns over three seasons.

Before the NFL, Moore was a standout football player in high school in Kentucky and later at Purdue from 2018-20. With the Boilermakers, he received a number of honors including Big Ten Freshman of the Year, Big Ten Receiver of the Year and was a consensus All-American in 2018.
