Cleared to play vs. New England Wattenberg (shoulder) is active for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.

Impact Wattenberg was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the fourth-year pro has been officially cleared to play in his first game since Week 16 after recovering from a shoulder injury. He should reclaim his starting job at center, and Alex Forsyth -- who filled in at center in Wattenberg's absence -- will not play Sunday due to an ankle injury.

Activated from IR The Broncos activated Wattenberg (shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday.

Impact Wattenberg is still listed as questionable to play in Sunday's elimination game, but the activation from injured reserve is a strong sign that the center will be able to suit up. With Alex Forsyth (ankle) also listed as questionable, the Broncos likely want to have every offensive lineman possibly available on the active roster.

Questionable for Sunday Wattenberg (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots.

Impact Wattenberg was a full participant in practice throughout the week, so the center's odds of being activated from injured reserve are high. Alex Forsyth (ankle), who has been operating as the starting center, is also questionable to play. Both linemen will likely be able to suit up, but in a situation where neither can go, Sam Mustipher will be the starting center in Sunday's playoff game.

Designated to return from IR The Broncos designated Wattenberg (shoulder) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.

Impact Wattenberg suffered a shoulder injury in late December that required extensive recovery time. Alex Forsyth (ankle) took over as the starting center in his absence and has played since Week 17. With Forsyth injuring his ankle in last Saturday's overtime playoff victory over the Bills, Wattenberg's potential return for Sunday's AFC Conference Championship Game against the Patriots would be a huge addition to the offensive line. In a doomsday scenario where neither Wattenberg nor Fosyth can suit up, the task of protecting backup quarterback Jared Stidham would fall to Sam Mustipher.

Impact Wattenberg suffered a shoulder injury at some point within the last week, and he will now be sidelined through the end of the regular season and potentially multiple playoff games. In his absence, Alex Forsyth will operate as Denver's starting center.

No go for Week 17 Wattenberg (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday night's matchup against the Chiefs.

Impact Wattenberg is dealing with an apparent shoulder injury which sidelined him for the team's entire week of progress. In his absence, Alex Forsyth will be a top candidate to draw the start at center versus Kansas City.
