The New Orleans Saints and Cornerback Isaac Yiadom agreed on a 3-year $9 million deal on Thursday morning. His contract is worth a maximum of $10.5 million and includes $4.86 million guaranteed. He is coming off a career season with the San Francisco 49ers. He had 46 tackles, 2 forced fumbles, and 1 interception. Yiadom is no stranger to the New Orleans Saints as he played for the team in 2022 and 2023. How will the veteran cornerback play with the Saints in 2025?
New Orleans Saints Offseason Outlook
Even with a tenuous salary cap situation, New Orleans has improved its roster this offseason. They signed Safety Justin Reid. The Saints also retained Defensive End Chase Young, Tight End Juwan Johnson, and Defensive End Cameron Jordan.
Yiadom is joining a Saints defense that struggled against the pass. The veteran corner will look to improve that part of the team in 2025. He will play in the secondary alongside Safety Tyrann Mathieu and Cornerback Kool-Aid McKinstry.
Final Thoughts
Yiadom will look to continue playing well for the Saints in his second stint with the team. New Orleans had been active this offseason and will enter 2025 with playoff aspirations. They are seeking a return to the postseason for the first time since 2020.
