The New Orleans Saints agreed to a three-year deal with free agent cornerback Isaac Yiadom, his agency, Vayner Sports, announced Thursday.
Yiadom appeared in 17 games last season for the San Francisco 49ers. He matched his career-high with 46 combined tackles. He also logged six passes defensed, two forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and an interception.
The 6-foot-1, 232-pound defender entered the league as a third-round pick by the Denver Broncos in the 2018 NFL Draft. He was traded twice through his first four seasons. Yiadom signed a one-year, $1.9 million deal with the 49ers last off-season. He split joined the Saints for an initial tenure in 2022 after being waived by the Houston Texans.
Yiadom totaled 204 combined tackles, 32 passes defensed, three forced fumbles, three fumble recoveries, three interceptions and a tackle for a loss over the first 104 appearances of his career. He earned a career-best 10 starts in 2020 for the New York Giants. Yiadom started 13 games over the last two seasons between his time with the Saints and 49ers.
