Albert Okwuegbunam Back From Injured Reserve
3 years agoThe Denver Broncos activated tight end Albert Okwuegbunam (hamstring) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, according to a source. Both Okwuegbunam and wide receiver Jerry Jeudy (ankle), who had been out since Week 1 with a high ankle sprain, will return to action in Week 8 against the Washington Football Team. Okwuegbunam has seen some looks in the red zone this year in his four games played and scored a touchdown in the season opener, but he's caught only nine passes for 57 yards while operating as the clear No. 2 tight end behind Noah Fant. The 23-year-old will give Denver more receiving depth, but the Broncos offense just can't support two fantasy relevant tight ends.
