Devine Ozigbo: Let go by Detroit

He rushed for 34 yards on 15 carries in two preseason games. Ozigbo's special teams experience should help him land a spot elsewhere once he clears waivers.

Devine Ozigbo: Sticking around on practice squad
The Broncos re-signed Ozigbo to the practice squad Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
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.

Devine Ozigbo: Let go Monday
The Broncos waived Ozigbo on Monday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
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.

Broncos' Devine Ozigbo: Plays four offensive snaps in loss
Ozigbo caught his only target for three yards in Sunday's 23-10 loss to the Panthers.
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.
