Fabian Moreau

Having primarily started as the team's nickelback, interim head coach Bill Callahan had Moreau start outside replacing Josh Norman and playing opposite of Quinton Dunbar in Week 12 of 2019. In his first start outside against the Detroit Lions, Moreau intercepted two passes thrown by Jeff Driskel in the 19–16 win. In the following week against the Carolina Panthers, Moreau recorded his third interception of the season off a pass thrown by Kyle Allen in the 29–21 win. He was placed on injured reserve on December 27, 2019. He finished the season with 44 tackles, five passes defensed, and three interceptions through 12 games and seven starts.

Coming out of UCLA, Moreau was projected by the majority of NFL draft experts and scouts to be a late first or second round pick. On January 21, 2017, he participated in the 2017 East-West Shrine Game and had an impressive performance that helped the West win 10-3. Moreau also received an invitation to the Reese's Senior Bowl, but declined due to being "nicked up". He received an invitation to the NFL combine and completed nearly all of the required combine and positional drills, but opted to skip the bench press. On March 21, 2017, Moreau participated at UCLA's pro day and suffered a pectoral injury during his bench press. All 32 NFL teams had team representatives and scouts present to scout Moreau, Conor McDermott, Kenny Walker, Jayon Brown, Eddie Vanderdoes, and nine other prospects. He also performed positional drills for coaches that included Oakland Raiders' defensive backs coach Rod Woodson. The injury he suffered during the bench was first thought to be a strain, but was later discovered to be a torn pectoral muscle. On March 22, 2017, he had surgery to repair the injury. After suffering the injury, many analysts projected him to fall to the third round due to his history of injuries and a deep cornerback position in the draft. On March 21, 2017, he had a private meeting with the Detroit Lions. He was ranked the ninth best cornerback in the draft by NFLDraftScout.com and ranked the 11th best by NFL analyst Mike Mayock.

The Washington Redskins selected Moreau in the third round (81st overall) of the 2017 NFL Draft. He was the 12th cornerback selected in the draft.

On May 26, 2017, the Washington Redskins signed Moreau to a four-year, $3.33 million contract that includes a signing bonus of $825,392.

He made his professional regular season debut in the Washington Redskins' season-opening 17-30 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. The following week, he made the first tackle of his career in a 27-20 victory over the Los Angeles Rams. On October 15, 2017, Moreau recorded three combined tackles and his first career pass deflection during a 26-24 win against the San Francisco 49ers.

Moreau played at UCLA from 2012 to 2016. He became a starter his sophomore year in 2013. He missed most of 2015 with a broken foot. During his career, Moreau had 149 tackles and three interceptions.
