As the Eagles get ready to privately receive their Super Bowl 59 rings, one face will be missing from the celebration: Isaiah Rodgers—the cornerback who resurrected his career in Philly and is now with the Minnesota Vikings.
“Without the Eagles, I Wouldn’t Be Here!”
After being released by the Colts due to a gambling suspension, it looked like Rodgers’ career was over. But the Eagles—and the sharp eye of Howie Roseman—gave him a second chance.
“They’re the team that brought my career back to life and helped me revive myself. Without them, I wouldn’t be here. Eagles will always be my people, no hard feelings,” Rodgers said, his voice heavy with emotion.
Rodgers worked relentlessly, waiting out his suspension, and made a huge impact whenever called upon. He made key tackles, forced fumbles, and came up big in crucial moments—helping the Eagles capture the Super Bowl ring he’d dreamed of his whole life.
A Philly Dream—A New Chapter in Minnesota
Though no longer an Eagle, Rodgers will never forget the memories, the brotherhood, and the Philly spirit:
“We became stronger not just because we played football together—but because we truly saw each other as brothers. That belief carried us to glory.”
After signing a $15 million contract with the Vikings, Rodgers can’t hide his feelings about facing the Eagles in Week 7: “I’ve circled that date! It’ll be impossible to forget… Even though I won’t be at the ring ceremony, I’ll be watching on TV and cheering for my guys.”
Farewell, But Never Goodbye—Once an Eagle, Always an Eagle!
Rodgers has proven: even if life knocks you down, all it takes is one team’s trust to turn you into a champion. For Eagles fans, the image of Isaiah Rodgers giving his all on the field, fighting for Philly, will never be forgotten!
Eagles Nation, send your thanks to Isaiah Rodgers—the man who was “reborn” by Philly’s faith and left an indelible mark on our championship journey!
