The Minnesota Vikings are addressing a key roster need early in free agency, reaching an agreement to sign former Colts and Eagles cornerback Isaiah Rodgers during the legal tampering period.
Originally a sixth-round pick by Indianapolis in 2020, Rodgers spent the 2024 season with the Eagles, appearing in 15 games and making three starts during the regular season on their path to the Super Bowl.
“Former Eagles CB Isaiah Rodgers reached agreement on a 2-year, $15 million contract with the Minnesota Vikings,” ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported on X on March 10. “The deal includes $8M fully guaranteed and was negotiated by Bryan Gavin and Ed Wasielewski of EMG Sports.”
At 27 years old, Rodgers contributed 26 total tackles, four pass deflections, and one forced fumble during the regular season. In the postseason, he added six tackles, three pass breakups, and a recovered fumble that he returned for a touchdown, playing a key role in the Eagles’ Super Bowl victory.
Standing 5-foot-10, Rodgers brings versatility to the Vikings’ secondary with experience playing both outside corner and in the nickel position. Additionally, he has experience returning punts, adding further value to his new team.
