INJURIES

Gets promotion to active roster Detroit signed Ozigbo from its practice squad to the active roster Monday.
Impact With David Montgomery (ribs) and Zonovan Knight (shoulder) both out Monday, the Lions saw fit to bring Ozigbo up from the practice squad on a full-time basis. He'll compete with Craig Reynolds for carries behind Jahmyr Gibbs.
OCTOBER 30, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Returns to practice squad Ozigbo reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday.
Impact Ozigbo was elevated for a second straight week, failing to record a stat while playing 13 snaps on special teams in Detroit's 38-6 loss to Baltimore. If David Montgomery (ribs) can't go in Week 8 versus the Raiders, it's possible Ozigbo will once again be added to the active roster.
OCTOBER 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Promoted again Ozigbo was elevated to the Lions' active roster ahead of Sunday's game against Baltimore.
Impact With running backs Craig Reynolds (hamstring) and David Montgomery (ribs) both having injury designations this Sunday, Ozigbo has been elevated to the team's active roster for the second consecutive week. The Nebraska product recorded five yards on three carries during Detroit's Week 6 win over the Buccaneers.
OCTOBER 21, 2023 • ROTOWIRE
Reverts to practice squad Ozigbo reverted to Detroit's practice squad Monday.
Impact Ozigbo logged three carries for five yards and caught his only target for an additional eight yards in Sunday's Week 6 win over the Buccaneers. The 27-year-old could be in line to be called up ahead of Sunday's Week 8 matchup versus the Ravens, as both David Montgomery (ribs) and Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) are dealing with injuries.

Bumps back down to practice squad Ozigbo reverted to Denver's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Ozigbo was elevated from the practice squad for the third time this season to help fill in for the Broncos' depleted running backs corps Sunday versus Arizona. The 26-year-old still played just five of his 18 snaps on offense during this win, logging two carries for two yards. Ozigbo has now logged four touches for seven yards across four games this season, though he'll need to be re-added to the active roster to suit up again for Denver this season.
DECEMBER 20, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Will be available vs. Cardinals Denver elevated Ozigbo from its practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game versus Arizona, Ben Swanson of the Broncos' official site reports.
Impact Ozigbo appears to be poised to make his fourth appearance of the season Sunday as Denver deals with a host of injuries in its running back room. The 26-year-old tailback has one carry for two yards and one catch for three yards through three games in 2022.
DECEMBER 17, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Sticking around on practice squad The Broncos re-signed Ozigbo to the practice squad Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Impact Ozigbo was signed off the practice squad ahead of Sunday's loss to the Panthers, but he was limited to one reception on his lone target while playing four offensive snaps. Denver also elevated the 26-year-old running back for Weeks 5 and 8, so he's still eligible for more game-day activation while on the team's practice squad this season. However, Ozigbo will likely see limited usage moving forward after the Broncos also designated running back Mike Boone (ankle) to return from IR on Wednesday.
DECEMBER 1, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Let go Monday The Broncos waived Ozigbo on Monday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Impact Ozigbo has spent time on and off Denver's practice squad this season, and he was added to the team's active roster Saturday. The 26-year-old then caught his lone target while playing four offensive snaps in Sunday's loss to the Panthers as the No. 3 running back behind Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack. Ozigbo was also elevated from the Broncos' practice squad for two games earlier this season, and he'll likely re-join this unit if he's unable to secure a spot with an active roster elsewhere.
NOVEMBER 29, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Plays four offensive snaps in loss Ozigbo caught his only target for three yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Panthers.
Impact Ozigbo failed to record a single rush Sunday while operating as the Bronco's No. 3 running back behind Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack. Murray handled the lion's share of work out of the backfield, leading the way in carries and yards, while Mack and Ozigbo played six and four offensive snaps, respectively. With Mike Boone (ankle) possibly returning from injured reserve in Week 13, Ozigbo could potentially be heading back to the practice squad. Nonetheless, the 26-year-old will remain far off the fantasy radar when the Broncos visit the Ravens in Week 13.
NOVEMBER 28, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Signed off practice squad The Broncos signed Ozigbo from their practice squad Saturday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Impact This move comes as no surprise since Denver head coach Nathaniel Hackett confirmed Friday that Ozigbo would join the team for the Week 12 contest against Carolina. The Broncos are suddenly thin at running back after Melvin Gordon was waived Monday and Chase Edmonds (ankle) was placed on IR on Tuesday, though Ozigbo may not see much work behind Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack. This is the third week this season that Ozigbo will be active for Denver, but so far he's logged only two offensive snaps and converted one carry into two yards.

NOVEMBER 26, 2022 • STAR-TELEGRAM.COM
Will be elevated for Week 12 Coach Nathaniel Hackett confirmed Friday that Denver intends to elevate Ozigbo from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's game against the Panthers, Mike Klis of 9News Denver report...
Impact Ozigbo will join Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack in a new-look Denver backfield that's without Chase Edmonds (ankle) and the recently waived Melvin Gordon. Murray is expected to see the majority of playing time, though the 26-year-old Ozigbo will offer some fresh legs in addition to contributing on special teams.

Will likely play in Week 12 Ozigbo will likely be elevated from Denver's practice squad and be a part of the running back rotation in Week 12, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
Impact Ozigbo is currently on the Broncos' practice squad, but the veteran running back will likely be called up and active for a Week 12 matchup against the Panthers. The 26-year-old would be in line to handle duties behind presumed starter Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack. Ozigbo's opportunity in Denver's backfield comes on the heels of Melvin Gordon being waived by the Broncos on Monday. Recent trade acquisition Chase Edmonds is also slated to miss time with a high right-ankle sprain. Despite head coach Nathaniel Hackett's claim that Ozigbo will be a part of the running back rotation in Week 12, he will be extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes with limited opportunities on a struggling offense.

Broncos waive Gordon after another fumble leads to a loss

Running back Melvin Gordon's fumble issues finally cost him his job with the Denver Broncos, who waived him Monday after his latest fumble cost them points in a loss to the Raiders
NOVEMBER 21, 2022 • Associated Press
Let go by Broncos The Broncos waived Ozigbo on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Impact Ozigbo's time in Denver came to an abrupt end Tuesday, after the team brought in running back Chase Edmonds via trade from the Dolphins earlier in the day. The 26-year-old saw just one carry across two games played in 2022 for the Broncos, but he'll now search elsewhere for a shot at more playing time this season.

Signed to active roster Denver signed Ozigbo from its practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Impact Ozigbo was elevated from the practice squad for Week 5 and played primarily on special teams, garnering one rush attempt for two yards across two offensive snaps. With Mike Boone (ankle) and Javonte Williams (knee) on IR, Ozigbo figures to operate as a depth option behind Melvin Gordon, Latavius Murray and Marlon Mack.
OCTOBER 30, 2022 • ROTOWIRE
Reverts to practice squad Ozigbo reverted to the Broncos' practice squad Friday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Impact Ozigbo played primarily on special teams during Thursday's loss to the Colts, logging just one rush for two yards across two offensive snaps. With Javonte Williams (knee) out for the season, Melvin Gordon and Mike Boone are expected to split the majority of the running-back duties, though recently signed Latavius Murray also figures to compete for touches once he gets fully acclimated to his new squad.

Colts promote Phillip Lindsay ahead of game against Broncos

The Indianapolis Colts have promoted running back Phillip Lindsay off their practice squad ahead of their game Thursday night in Denver
OCTOBER 6, 2022 • Associated Press
Up from practice squad The Broncos have elevated Ozigbo from their practice squad ahead of Thursday night's game against the Colts, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Impact With Javonte Williams (knee) on IR, Ozigbo will provide the Broncos with some added Week 5 backfield depth behind Melvin Gordon and Mike Boone, while also providing the team with another special teams option. It remains to be seen how much he's involved in the team's offense Thursday though, with Gordon in line to handle lead duties against the Colts.
