Players In
- Clint Irwin (trade with Toronto)
- Andre Rawls (selected in 2018 Re-Entry Draft)
Players Out
- Zac MacMath (trade with Vancouver)
Outlook:
In order to acquire do-it-all midfielder Nicolás Mezquida from Vancouver, the Rapids had to part ways with Zac MacMath who spent four seasons with the club. MacMath’s spot was quickly filled when the Rapids struck a deal with Toronto FC to land Clint Irwin, who spent three seasons with TFC after beginning his career in Colorado.
