The All-Australian defender's injury is similar to that of Bombers gun Andrew McGrath, who is currently sidelined with a PCL injury and will miss 8-12 weeks of action.
Moore has once again thrived down back for the Magpies this season, with his injury another major blow for his club, who currently sit in 16th with a 4-9 record following their Round 13 win.
The news sours a positive start to the week for the Magpies, who farewelled departing coach Nathan Buckley with an emotional victory over the Demons at the SCG.
Moore joins an extensive list of injured Collingwood players, with Taylor Adams (knee), Brodie Grundy (neck), Jeremy Howe (Hamstring), Brayden Sier (jaw) and Tyler Brown (shoulder) all currently sidelined.
