Wattenberg was Denver's starting center before the injury, but Alex Forsyth has taken over those responsibilities in recent weeks.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Lands on IR
Wattenberg (ankle) was placed on the Reserve/Injured List on Saturday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
Wattenberg has dealt with an ankle injury since the middle of training camp, and the nagging issue will now sideline him for at least Denver's next four games. He worked as the team's primary center through the first five games, and Alex Forsyth is now the best bet to take over Watteberg's vacated role.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Cleared for Week 2
Wattenberg (ankle) is absent from the injury report ahead of Sunday's game versus the Steelers.
After playing every snap in Week 1, Wattenberg kicked the week off as a non-participant at practice due to an ankle issue. He saw his participation increase each day as the week went on, so it looks like Denver was just erring on the side of caution with its starting center. Barring any setbacks, look for him to take on his usual role versus Pittsburgh.

Wattenberg (ankle) did not participate in Wednesday's practice session, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Wattenberg played all 69 offensive snaps for the Broncos during Sunday's 26-20 loss to the Seahawks, but the 2022 fifth-round pick appears to have tweaked his ankle during the contest.
