William grew up in his hometown and went to Hayti High School, where he started playing football. He was used as wide receiver and cornerback, making a difference at both ends of the field. He received several recognitions for his efforts, as he posted a school record of 74 receptions for 1,768 yards while scoring 34 touchdowns.
After high school matriculation, William enrolled at the University of Missouri, but was offered scholarships for such universities as Oklahoma, Arkansas, Purdue, Illinois, and Mississippi among many others. He spent the first season redshirted, and then in the second year he appeared in nine games, making 30 tackles and one interception. He continued to play well in college, setting the record in 2007 for most interceptions with eight, and made 117 tackles, and so was named into First-team All-American that year, and Second-team All-Big 12. He finished his college career with 284 tackles, alongside 11 interceptions and three sacks and also achieved four interception return touchdowns, which was a school record.
Following his graduation, William declared for the 2009 NFL Draft, and was selected by the Atlanta Falcons as the 55th overall pick. He chose the No. 25 in honor of a tragically deceased teammate from Missouri, who died during volunteer work.
In his rookie season, William appeared in two games only, making one tackle. However, his playing time increased in 2010, wearing his jersey in all 16 games. He used his chance rather well, making 72 tackles overall with a career high five interceptions. Moore continued to make great plays, earning Pro-Bowl selection in 2012, and in 2013 he was offered a new contract worth $32 million over five years, which increased his wealth to a large degree. Unfortunately, following the end of 2014 season, Atlanta hired a new head coach, Dan Quinn, who didn’t see William in his plans, and as a result, he was released by the club to make space for other players. Since then, he has been a free agent, so far without another club.
Regarding his personal life, William tends to keep details of his private affairs hidden from the media, therefore, no information is available about Moore’s life off the field.
