A “handful” of players are expected to be suspended by the NFL for allegedly gambling on sports, according to a report by ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Wednesday, including Colts cornerback and kick returner Isaiah Rodgers.
As reported earlier this month by Sports Illustrated’s Conor Orr, Rodgers had been under investigation for placing “hundreds of bets,” some of which involved Indianapolis, which were allegedly funneled through an account without his name on it to avoid detection. Rodgers had already addressed his behavior, calling it an “error in judgment.”
Rodgers, a sixth round pick in the 2020 draft out of UMass, has recorded 90 tackles and three interceptions in 45 career games.
