Rotowire
Rodgers tallied 26 tackles (17 solo) and four pass defenses across 15 regular-season appearances in 2024. He tacked on six tackles (five solo) and three passes defended across four playoff games.
Rodgers signed with the Eagles in August 2023 but missed the entire ensuing campaign due to a suspension for violating the NFL's gambling policy. The 27-year-old served as the top reserve cornerback while also contributing on special teams in every game he played in 2024. Meanwhile, rookie cornerbacks Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean stepped into starting roles alongside veteran Darius Slay. Rodgers is slated to become a restricted free agent this offseason.

Eagles' Isaiah Rodgers: Full go for Thursday's practice
Rotowire
Rodgers (hand) was a full participant in Thursday's practice.
Rodgers was held out of the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Packers due to a hand injury, which he revealed was a fracture that he suffered on the last day of training camp that required surgery, per Andrew DiCecco of InsideTheBirds.com. His full participation in Thursday's session sets the stage for him to suit up Monday against the Falcons, after he was inactive for the Eagles' Week 1 win over the Packers in Brazil. He'll be making his Eagles debut this weekend, as Rodgers signed with Philadelphia last August but was ineligible to compete while serving a season-long suspension for violating the NFL's gambling policy. He previously appeared in 15 games for the Colts in 2022, registering 34 tackles (24 solo), three pass breakups, one forced fumble and one fumble recovery.

Isaiah Rodgers: Cut following gambling ban
Rotowire
The Colts waived Rodgers on Thursday.
Earlier Thursday, Rodgers was officially suspended indefinitely for gambling on NFL games, including bets placed on his own team, and the Colts apparently were ready to cut him once the year-long ban was announced by the league. The 25-year-old was initially expected to take over as a starting cornerback in Indy this year, but his career now may be hanging in the balance. We won't see Rodgers again until at least the 2024 season. Rodgers started nine games on defense last year and has played 897 defensive snaps over the last two years.
