DENVER, Colo. (Jan. 23, Reuters/Field Level) – The Colorado Rapids signed defender Michael Edwards to a new contract for 2025 with a club option for 2026.

Edwards, 24, made his MLS debut in 2024 and contributed one goal in four matches, including two starts.


“Michael is a player who has progressed through our system, gaining experience with both the First Team and Rapids 2, and we believe he has the qualities to contribute at a high level,” Colorado Rapids sporting director Fran Taylor said in a news release Monday. “Our hope is that Michael can take the next step in his career here in Colorado and become an important piece among our group of central defenders.”
