He was signed by the Detroit Lions as an undrafted free agent in 2012. He played college football at Boise State.

As a junior, he finished fourth in the balloting for the 2010 Heisman Trophy.〔http://www.collegefootballpoll.com/2010_archive_awards.html〕 ==Early years== Born and raised in Prosser, Washington, Moore grew up surrounded by the sport. His father Tom was head coach at Prosser High School from 1986 to 2008, winning 21 league titles and four state championships. During football season, he and younger brother Kirby, who also played at Boise State as a wide receiver, practiced plays in the backyard after football practice. As his father remembered in a 2011 interview, "He'd always have a little notepad with him. He was always drawing up plays." This immersion in football served him well as he developed—in his final two years of high school, his father let him call his own plays. According to his mother, Moore "grew fast, and then he didn't grow again" — he was as a high school sophomore, nearly his adult height.〔 His lack of height proved no obstacle to success at Prosser High. Moore was named the Gatorade Player of the Year for the state of Washington.〔(Kellen Moore bio ) Broncosports.com〕 He lettered in football and basketball three times each and was named Velocity/Prep Star All-American and First-team All-state, and Division 2A MVP by the ''Seattle Times''. He earned league player of the year honors as well as First-team All-league recognition as a sophomore, junior and senior. He was also Third-team All-state selection as a junior. He set Washington state career records for completions (787) and touchdown passes (173). He also set state single-season records for completions (317 as a junior), yards (4,600 as a junior) and touchdown passes (67 as a senior). He finished his career completing 787 of 1,195 passes (.659) for 11,367 yards and 173 touchdowns with 34 interceptions. He led Prosser to a 12–1 record in 2006 as a senior and a spot in the state semifinals, in a loss to the Centralia Tigers that included two interceptions. As a junior he completed 317-of-479 passes (66.2 percent) for 4,600 yards and 66 touchdowns with 15 interceptions.
