I personally rooted this phone.
Verizon or boost?
boost
I've also rooted boost, but Verizon is not root-able as of now.(Verizon does not allow unlock of the bootloader)
I never rooted but FWIU there are always holes making any phone rootable just not necessarily easy
The Verizon model is rootable through 4.4.2http://forum.xda-developers.com/moto-x/orig-development/root-4-4-x-pie-motorola-devices-t2771623http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2774016
