The Steelers waived Ogundeji on Monday, Alan Saunders of SteelersNow.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji defended one pass across 15 defensive snaps in the Steelers' Week 6 win over the Raiders, but it now appears the team has decided to move in a different direction. The Notre Dame product could end up on the Steelers' practice squad if he goes unclaimed on waivers.

Atlanta waived Ogundeji on Thursday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji spent the 2023 season on the Falcons' injured reserve list with a foot issue, and now Atlanta is parting ways with him. He'll have to look for his next opportunity with a different club.

The Falcons have placed Ogundeji (foot) on injured reserve, Terrin Waack of the Falcons official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji was carted off the practice field Monday after suffering a foot injury. The 24-year-old has been a starter in Atlanta since being drafted in 2021 as a fifth-round pick out of Notre Dame. With Ikenna Enechukwu (undisclosed) also on IR, the Falcons are already getting a little thin at outside linebacker before the season has even kicked off. Thus, it would not be surprising to see them bring in some more competition.

Ogundeji suffered a foot injury in practice Monday, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji's injury details are unclear, but he'll be seeking a second opinion regarding them today, according to head coach Arthur Smith. The Notre Dame product is expected to hold a rotational role in the team's linebacker corps once again this season, but he'll need to get healthy first to do so.

Ogundeji (shoulder) practiced as a full participant Thursday.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji suffered a shoulder injury during the team's Week 5 matchup against Tampa Bay and missed Sunday's contest versus the 49ers as a result. However, his ability to practice in full Thursday suggests he's moved past the issue, and he'll likely continue hovering around 50 percent of Atlanta's defensive snaps Sunday against the Bengals.

Ogundeji (shoulder) is inactive for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji was listed as questionable on Friday after sustaining a shoulder injury during Week 5's matchup against the Bucs but is now unable to suit up. Arnold Ebiketie will likely get his first start and play a more expanded pass-rushing role Sunday.

Ogundeji is questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers due to a shoulder injury.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji presumably picked up the shoulder injury during the team's Week 5 loss to Tampa Bay and was limited at each practice ahead of Week 6. If the second-year linebacker is unable to suit up, rookie second-round pick Arnold Ebiketie would likely step into an expanded pass-rushing role against San Francisco.

Ogundeji played seven snaps but didn't record any counting stats during Friday's preseason opener against the Lions.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji was listed as the starting outside linebacker opposite of Lorenzo Carter and, along with the rest of the starters, played just one defensive series. The 2021 fifth-round pick appeared in 17 games as a rookie and registered 33 tackles and one sack. However, with Dante Fowler gone, Ogundeji appears to have a good shot at opening the 2022 season with an increased role along Atlanta's defensive front.

Ogundeji (ankle) practiced in full Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji missed the Falcons' win over the Panthers on Sunday, but a return to practicing in full should have him ready to take the field Sunday against the 49ers. The rookie fifth-round selection has 24 tackles (14 solo) with one sack, one passed defensed and a fumble recovery in a reserve role in the Falcons' linebacker unit.

Ogundeji (anke) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Panthers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ogundeji was able to return to practice as a limited participant Thursday and Friday, but he will ultimately miss his first game of the season. In his absence, Brandon Copeland is expected to see increased opportunities against the Panthers.
