Harold Warren Moon, born on November 18, 1956, is widely regarded as one of the most accomplished quarterbacks in professional football history. Over his 23-season career, Moon made a significant impact in both the Canadian Football League (CFL) and the National Football League (NFL). Despite going undrafted, Moon's perseverance and talent led him to become a trailblazer, especially as an African-American quarterback in a time when opportunities were limited. His career began with the Edmonton Eskimos in 1978, where he quickly established himself as a dominant force, leading the team to five consecutive Grey Cup championships from 1978 to 1982.

Moon's success in the CFL caught the attention of NFL teams, and in 1984, he signed with the Houston Oilers. Over the next 10 seasons with the Oilers, Moon became one of the league's premier passers, leading the NFL in passing yards twice and earning nine Pro Bowl selections. His 1990 season was particularly remarkable, as he was named the NFL Offensive Player of the Year after leading the league in both passing yards and touchdowns. Moon's ability to read defenses, combined with his strong arm and leadership, helped the Oilers reach the playoffs seven times during his tenure.

In addition to his time with the Oilers, Moon also played for the Minnesota Vikings, Seattle Seahawks, and Kansas City Chiefs before retiring in 2000. By the end of his career, Moon had set numerous passing records across both the CFL and NFL, solidifying his legacy as one of the greatest quarterbacks in the history of professional football. Although he did not achieve significant postseason success in the NFL, his five Grey Cup victories remain a CFL record, and he was twice named Grey Cup MVP. Moon's contributions to the game were recognized in 2006 when he became the first African-American quarterback and the first undrafted quarterback to be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

Moon's legacy extends beyond his on-field accomplishments, as he broke barriers and paved the way for future generations of African-American quarterbacks. His induction into both the Pro Football Hall of Fame and the Canadian Football Hall of Fame is a testament to his extraordinary career and the impact he had on the sport. Moon's journey from being undrafted to becoming one of the most respected figures in football history serves as an inspiration to athletes everywhere.
