It might have seemed like a low-key signing at the time, but the Minnesota Vikings poached a player fans of the reigning Super Bowl champions would like back.
With journeyman veterans like Stephon Gilmore and Shaq Griffin no longer in their plans, the Vikings were in the market for cornerbacks during the first wave of 2025 free agency.
One of their first reported signings was a two-year deal with Isaiah Rodgers, a reserve cornerback for the Philadelphia Eagles last season who played some critical snaps in the NFC playoffs.
The price tag on Rodgers was extremely reasonable — $11 million over two years with about $8 million in guarantees, per Spotrac.
