Elected to the National Football League Hall of Fame in 2006

Elected to the Canadian Football League Hall of Fame in 2001

(1956-) Born in Los Angeles, California, Moon graduated from the University of Washington in 1978. As a senior in 1977, he led the Huskies to the Pac-8 title, and a 27–20 upset win in the Rose Bowl over Michigan. Moon was named the game's Most Valuable Player on the strength of two touchdown runs and a third-quarter 28-yard touchdown pass. Moon signed after graduation with the Canadian Football League's Edmonton Eskimos, where he helped lead them to a record 5 consecutive Grey Cup victories in 1978, 1979, 1980, 1981, and 1982. Moon won the Grey Cup MVP award in their 1980 and 1982 championship seasons, and became the first professional quarterback to pass for 5,000 yards in a single season, in 1982. In his final CFL season of 1983, Moon threw for a CFL record of 5,648 yards, and won the CFL's Most Outstanding Player Award. In his 6 years in the CFL, Moon amassed 1,369 completions on 2,382 attempts, a 57.4 completion percentage, for 21,228 yards, and 144 touchdown passes. He also led his team to victory in nine of 10 postseason games. Moon was inducted into the Canadian Football League Hall of Fame in 2001, and the Edmonton Eskimos' Wall of Honor. He was ranked 5th on a list of the 50 greatest Canadian Football League players. Moon then decided to enter the National Football League and signed with the Houston Oilers after a very intense bidding war took place for his services. Moon threw for a franchise record of 3,338 yards in his first NFL season of 1984. In his NFL career he played with the Houston Oilers, 1984-93; Minnesota Vikings, 1994-96; Seattle Seahawks, 1997-98; and the Kansas City Chiefs, 1999-2000.

Combining the statistics from his NFL and CFL 23 year professional career, Warren Moon's numbers are nearly unmatched in professional football annals: 5,357 completions in 9,205 attempts for 70,553 yards and 435 touchdowns. Even if his Canadian Football League statistics are discounted, Moon's NFL career numbers are still exceptional: 3,988 completions for 49,325 yards, 291 touchdown passes, 1,736 yards rushing, and 22 rushing touchdowns. Moon was in the top five all-time in the NFL when he retired for passing yards, passing touchdowns, passing attempts, and pass completions.

He was named to nine Pro Bowls (1988–1995, 1997). After his playing career ended, he worked as a broadcaster for the Seattle Seahawks on both TV and radio until 2017. Warren Moon was elected to the NFL Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2006, becoming the first Canadian Football Hall of Fame player to be elected into the NFL Hall of Fame, and he was the first African-American quarterback honored, and he was elected in his first year of eligibility. The Tennessee Titans, who were the old Houston Oilers franchise, moved from Houston to Nashville, Tennessee in 1997, and changed their name to the Tennessee Titans. The Titans retired Moon's number at halftime on October 1, 2006, in a game against the Dallas Cowboys.
