Randy Chambers’s Free Pick: New England Patriots -2.5 Isaiah Rodgers on gambling suspension: I made a mistake and I did my time.
Isaiah Rodgers, a cornerback for the Eagles, missed the entire previous campaign due to a gambling suspension. He was brought back into the NFL on April 23 and has since participated in the team’s offseason training.
During his vacation, Rodgers stated that the “brotherhood” that exists in the locker room was what he missed the most.
In an NBC Sports Philadelphia video, Aaron Rodgers stated, “I made a mistake, and I did my time.” “It feels good to be back among a great team and group of guys, and to finally feel that locker room atmosphere again.”
On June 29, Rodgers was suspended by the NFL when he was with the Colts. Though he claimed the bets were placed for friends and family who lived in Florida, where online sports betting is prohibited, he was caught making wagers at the team facilities and involving his own squad.
He was promptly cut by the Colts, and he later signed a $1.01 million, one-year contract with the Eagles.

Rodgers stated, “Rules are rules, and they are in place for a reason.” Therefore, you will face the penalties if you violate them. You stay amazing even if you don’t. That, in my opinion, is something that everyone need to take up from him.
Rodgers is vying for a starting position with rookies Cooper DeJean and Quinyon Mitchell, among others, having adopted an NFL work week regimen for his training regimen in 2023. It’s also anticipated that he will play a part in special teams.
Rodgers declared, “I can do whatever the team needs me to do.” “I am able to come off the edge and play defensive end. And I will do that. I’ll go into my playbook and study whatever the coach wants of me.
