State of the Colorado Rapids roster heading into 2021

After a week of mostly dry news centering around contract discussions, expansion draft protections, and a trade that won’t fully be realized until the MLS SuperDraft in January, the Colorado Rapids roster is more or less set for 2021. Austin FC didn’t select anyone from Colorado in the Expansion Draft, so as we enter the offseason proper, who are we bringing with us and who we are saying goodbye to as we turn to the 2021 season?

Let’s break it down by position.
