Veteran cornerback Isaac Yiadom is on the move to Green Bay.

The Giants have traded Yiadom to the Packers, according to multiple reports. There’s been no immediate word on what the Giants are getting in the deal.

This offseason Yiadom agreed to take a pay cut with the Giants. He’s due $1.07 million this season, of which $100,000 is guaranteed.

The 25-year-old Yiadom was a third-round pick of the Broncos in 2018. He played two seasons in Denver before being traded to the Giants a year ago for a seventh-round draft pick. Last year Yiadom played in all 16 games for the Giants, with 10 starts.

  1. He tackles well and is okay in zone, but it’s still a weird trade, CB is one of the deepest positions for GB. Jackson’s gone for sure now; maybe they can trade him for a kicking tee.

    Funny you should bring up Jackson. They traded him for Yiadom.

  3. Packers new D Coordinator wants “sticky coverage” for the D backs. Josh Jackson can’t do sticky coverage. He’s just not fast enough or quick. I really thought he would be a good FS after a stellar Iowa career,… but he just never evolved into the player we needed.
    Special teams standout though.
