Azeez Ojulari - NFL News, Rumors, & Updates

Joins Raiders' practice squad Las Vegas signed Ojulari to its practice squad Thursday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Ojulari suited up for just three games with the Eagles in 2025, and he'll start the new campaign with the Raiders as a practice squadder. Las Vegas' active roster doesn't have a ton of depth on the edge, so it might not take much for Ojulari to be elevated at some point in 2026.

Signs with hometown team Ojulari is slated to sign a one-year deal with the Falcons, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

Impact Ojulari is an Atlanta native, and the Falcons are looking to bring the veteran edge rusher home. The 25-year-old played in just three regular-season games for the Eagles last year, totalling 67 defensive snaps. The number of defensive snaps Ojulari gets to see in 2026 is likely tied to the result of James Pearce's standing battery charges and what other moves the Falcons make around the outside linebacker unit.

Won't face 49ers Ojulari (hamstring) was not activated from injured reserve Saturday and will not play in Sunday's wild-card game against the 49ers, per the NFL transaction log.

Impact Ojulari hasn't played since Week 7, but he logged full practices throughout the week. If the Eagles advance to the divisional round, he seemingly has a good chance to return.

JANUARY 11 • ROTOWIRE

Questionable but still on IR Ojulari (hamstring) is listed as questionable for Sunday's wild-card round game against the 49ers.

Impact Ojulari would need to be activated from injured reserve in order to suit up Sunday, but he has looked promising in practice after having his return window opened Wednesday, as he practiced without limitations Friday. If given clearance to play, Ojulari would likely work in a depth role after being limited to three appearances during the regular season.

Eagles open practice window for Azeez Ojulari Ojulari has missed the last 10 games with a hamstring injury.

JANUARY 7 • PHILADELPHIAEAGLES.COM

Returning from IR The Eagles designated Ojulari (hamstring) to return from injured reserve Wednesday.

Impact Ojulari played in just three games this season, totalling 67 defensive snaps for six tackles, including two solo tackles. The weakside linebacker was a healthy scratch to start the season, but with Jaelan Phillips (ankle) questionable for Sunday's wild-card contest against the 49ers, Ojulari is primed to provide perfect depth for the Eagles' defense. The 25-year-old will have three practices to dodge any injury designation and prove he should be activated for Sunday's contest.

JANUARY 7 • ROTOWIRE

Placed on IR Ojulari (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Ojulari was a healthy scratch to begin the season and then suffered a hamstring injury in Week 7. He missed Week 8 with the issue and will now be sidelined until at least Week 14.

Unable to practice Wednesday Ojulari (hamstring) did not participate at practice Wednesday.

Impact Ojulari left the field during the first half in Week 7 at Minnesota after suffering a hamstring injury, and now it seems likely he'll have to sit out Week 8 action entirely. Unless he can somehow get back in pads for practice Thursday or Friday, Joshua Uche will be expected to take over Ojulari's starting role on the edge Sunday versus the Giants.
