Veteran cornerback Isaac Yiadom is on the move to Green Bay.

The Giants have traded Yiadom to the Packers, according to multiple reports. There’s been no immediate word on what the Giants are getting in the deal, but a conditional late-round draft pick is usually the compensation for players of Yiadom’s caliber at this point in training camp.

This offseason Yiadom agreed to take a pay cut with the Giants. He’s due $1.07 million this season, of which $100,000 is guaranteed.

The 25-year-old Yiadom was a third-round pick of the Broncos in 2018. He played two seasons in Denver before being traded to the Giants a year ago for a seventh-round draft pick. Last year Yiadom played in all 16 games for the Giants, with 10 starts.

Edit: Apparently Yiadom spent time in Denver and has experience in the Fangio system.

I think everyone knew Jackson was gone. I don't know how well Yiadom will play. More than likely he sticks around for a few weeks while the coaches try to get a read on him.

I am truly sorry Josh is gone. I liked him. Unfortunately his best year was his first year.

I haven't been able to look into him at all, but I read somewhere that Yiadom has played a good bit on STs, something the Packers are looking for in their end of the depth chart guys.

Also I've read he started for the Giants, I'm wondering if he was a slot of outside guy.

i wished it had worked out for the kid, but alas. I had thought he could have been a Charles Woodson type safety.

I am glad we got something for him...but probably the Giants are saying the same thing.

And it's not pretty to look at whom else was selected after Jackson.
