Re-signing Vontae Diggs and Jerod Fernandez for the New Orleans Breakers.

After a long couple of months of silence, the New Orleans Breakers are now very active in free agency. Jerod Fernandez and Vontae Diggs – two of the top linebackers in the USFL – have officially re-signed for the 2024 season.

Jerod Fernandez has been a stud for the breakers defense through two seasons. He was an All-USFL linebacker in 2022, posting 86 total tackles and 1.5 sacks in what was an outstanding campaign.

During the 2023 season, Fernandez was once again a pillar on the defensive side of the football. He started all ten games, finishing the year with 65 tackles, 3 TFL, an interception, and 0.5 sacks.

What makes Jerod so important to this unit is his leadership. His skill sets – both physically and mentally – make him into an elite playmaker at the position.

Vontae Diggs is another major retention for New Orleans, serving as an electrifying character – both on and off the field.
