Free agent defender Reggie Cannon signed a contract with the Colorado Rapids on Wednesday that spans through the 2027 season.

Financial terms were not disclosed by the Rapids on the deal, which includes a club option for the 2028 campaign.

Cannon, 26, has recorded 28 appearances with the U.S. men's national team.

"We are thrilled to add a player of Reggie's caliber to our group," Rapids president Padraig Smith said. "Reggie is a player with fantastic experience, having competed at the highest levels domestically and internationally. His athleticism, defensive qualities and tactical awareness strengthens our backline while his versatility provides additional flexibility in our lineup. We're excited to have him contribute to the success of the team and help us continue building a MLS Cup contending squad."

Cannon joins the Rapids after making 21 appearances with Queens Park Rangers in the EFL Championship. The Texas native also spent three seasons with Boavista FC of the Primeira Liga in Portugal after beginning his professional career as a homegrown player with FC Dallas in 2017.
