INDIANAPOLIS -- The NFL is investigating an Indianapolis Colts player for possible violations of the league's gambling policy.
The team acknowledged the inquiry Monday, saying in a statement, "We are aware of the NFL's investigation and will have no further comment at this time."
Multiple sources familiar with the investigation confirmed to ESPN that the player in question is Colts cornerback and kick returner Isaiah Rodgers. Rodgers, a sixth-round pick, is entering the final year of a four-year, $3.4 million contract.
The sportsbook account was opened under the name of an associate of Rodgers, the sources said.
