On June 6th, Indianapolis Colts cornerback Isaiah Rodgers was accused of betting on NFL games. This allegation comes as a shock to the NFL community, as betting on NFL games is strictly prohibited by the league.
Rodgers is a second-year player who was drafted by the Colts in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft. He has been a key contributor to the Colts’ defense this season, recording 33 tackles, two interceptions, and one forced fumble.
The allegations against Rodgers were first reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter. According to Schefter, Rodgers is accused of placing bets on NFL games during the 2020 season. The bets were reportedly placed through an offshore sportsbook.
The NFL has a strict policy against players betting on NFL games. If Rodgers is found guilty of the allegations, he could face a significant suspension from the league. The NFL has not yet commented on the allegations against Rodgers.
The Colts have also not commented on the allegations against Rodgers. However, they released a statement saying that they are aware of the situation and are gathering more information.
The allegations against Rodgers come at a difficult time for the Colts. They are currently preparing for the 2021 season and are hoping to build on their success from last year. Losing Rodgers for any amount of time would be a significant blow to their defense.
It is unclear at this time what will happen with Rodgers and the allegations against him. It is also unclear if he will face any disciplinary action from the league or the Colts. All we know is that this situation is something to keep an eye on in the coming weeks and months.
