The Saints signed Yiadom on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom is now set to remain in New Orleans for the time being following Thursday's transaction. The 27-year-old began last season as a member of the Texans before he was let go in November. The Saints signed him to their practice squad two days later, and Yiadom eventually served as a special-teams contributor across the team's final six games in 2022.

Yiadom was waived by the Texans on Tuesday, Brooks Kubena of the Houston Chronicle reports.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom was let go to help make room on Houston's 53-man roster for running back Eno Benjamin, who was claimed off waivers Tuesday. The 26-year-old cornerback recorded 10 tackles while primarily playing on special teams over 16 games with the Packers last season, and he has yet to log a defensive statistic in 2022. Yiadom will now pass through waivers before hitting free agency, should he go unclaimed.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom practiced in full Friday after logging two limited sessions earlier in the week. Nevertheless, he's set to miss his second consecutive game, which will primarily impact Houston's special teams unit.

Yiadom (thigh) logged a full practice Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom is still listed questionable for Sunday's contest with the Chargers despite his upgrade to full participation. The 26-year-old's potential absence would likely impact only the Texans' special-teams unit.

Yiadom (thigh) is out for Sunday's matchup against the Bears.

EDGE Analysis

While it is unclear when he sustained the injury, Yiadom did not practice in any fashion Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. The 26-year-old cornerback was able to play 50 special-teams snaps through the first two matchups of the 2022 campaign. Steven Nelson, the No. 1 left cornerback for the team, will continue to be counted on heavily.

Yiadom (undisclosed) was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list last week but will be available Sunday against the Seahawks following a one-game absence. The 25-year-old has logged just nine tackles (eight solo) to begin the season.

Yiadom (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

It's unclear whether Yiadom tested positive for the virus or is considered a close contact, but regardless, he'll be away from the team until he clears the necessary protocols. The 25-year-old has seen a diminished defensive role of late and exclusively played special teams Week 8 versus the Cardinals.

Yiadom is likely to start in place of Kevin King (shoulder) in Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Jason Wilde of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom has seen around 20 defensive snaps per game to this point in the campaign as a rotational corner. However, with King sidelined, Yiadom should be in line for his biggest role of the campaign. Rasul Douglas is also a candidate to see more snaps.

Yiadom was acquired by the Packers from the Giants on Tuesday in exchange for cornerback Josh Jackson, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The two teams will swap depth corners, with Yiadom heading to Green Bay after totaling 46 tackles, a half-sack, a forced fumble and five pass breakups in 16 games last season. He should compete with Chandon Sullivan for a depth role in the Packers' secondary behind Jaire Alexander, Kevin King and rookie first-rounder Eric Stokes.

Yiadom had 46 tackles (29 solo), 0.5 sacks, five defensed passes and one forced fumble across 16 games with the Giants in 2020.

EDGE Analysis

Yiadom's first season in New York was a successful one, as he put forth the strongest statline of his career while handling 633 defensive snaps. He remains under contract through the 2021 season with the Giants.
