Broncos' Eyioma Uwazurike: Lands on IR
The Broncos placed Uwazurike (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Uwazurike wasn't able to practice at all this week due to a shoulder issue. He started seven of Denver's first eight games, but he's now required to miss the team's next four contests. Third-round rookie Tyler Onyedim could see the first gameday action of his career as a result.

Broncos' Eyioma Uwazurike: Won't play at Carolina
Uwazurike (shoulder) is officially listed as out for Sunday's game against the Panthers.
Uwazurike will miss his first game of the season in Week 9 as he tends to a shoulder injury that kept him out of practice all week. In his stead, 2025 third-rounder Sai'vion Jones figures to get more opportunities on the defensive line Sunday.

Broncos' Eyioma Uwazurike: Career year in Denver
Uwazurike recorded 39 tackles (16 solo), including 3.5 sacks across 17 regular-season games with Denver in 2025.
Uwazurike finished his third year with the Broncos, posting career highs in tackles and sacks. The 27-year-old defensive lineman operated as the No. 2 nose tackle behind teammate D.J. Jones, yet the two finished with similar numbers this season. Uwazurike and Jones will likely continue to split duties at the position next season, but with Jones entering his age-31 season, it's possible Uwazurike will take a step forward in 2026 in a contract year.

The 2022 fourth-round pick out of Iowa State appeared in eight regular-season games during his rookie campaign, recording 17 total tackles and one pass defended.
