Detroit signed Ozigbo to its practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ozigbo signed onto the Lions' active roster a week ago but was waived just a few days later. After clearing waivers though, he's back on the practice squad, where he will likely stay for now if David Montgomery (ribs) is able to return in Week 10.

The Lions waived Ozigbo on Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The move corresponds with the Lions signing linebacker Trevor Nowaske to the active roster from the practice squad. Ozigbo was signed to the Lions' active roster Monday after joining their practice squad on Sept. 20. If he clears waivers, Ozigbo could look to rejoin Detroit on their practice squad or explore his options elsewhere.

Detroit signed Ozigbo from its practice squad to the active roster Monday.
EDGE Analysis
With David Montgomery (ribs) and Zonovan Knight (shoulder) both out Monday, the Lions saw fit to bring Ozigbo up from the practice squad on a full-time basis. He'll compete with Craig Reynolds for carries behind Jahmyr Gibbs.

Ozigbo reverted to the Lions' practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ozigbo was elevated for a second straight week, failing to record a stat while playing 13 snaps on special teams in Detroit's 38-6 loss to Baltimore. If David Montgomery (ribs) can't go in Week 8 versus the Raiders, it's possible Ozigbo will once again be added to the active roster.

Ozigbo was elevated to the Lions' active roster ahead of Sunday's game against Baltimore.
EDGE Analysis
With running backs Craig Reynolds (hamstring) and David Montgomery (ribs) both having injury designations this Sunday, Ozigbo has been elevated to the team's active roster for the second consecutive week. The Nebraska product recorded five yards on three carries during Detroit's Week 6 win over the Buccaneers.

Ozigbo reverted to Detroit's practice squad Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Ozigbo logged three carries for five yards and caught his only target for an additional eight yards. The 27-year-old could be in line to be called up again next week versus the Ravens as both David Montgomery (ribs) and Jahmyr Gibbs are dealing with injuries.

The Lions elevated Ozigbo from the practice squad Saturday.
EDGE Analysis
Ozgibo joined the Lions' practice squad Sept. 20 after being cut by the team prior to the 53-man roster deadline at the end of training camp. If he plays Sunday against the Buccaneers, Ozigbo would fill a depth backfield role behind David Montgomery and Craig Reynolds, with Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) ruled out for Week 6.

Ozigbo's signing with the Lions' practice squad Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
EDGE Analysis
Ozigbo spent most of August in Detroit's organization but was cut prior to the start of the regular season. If David Montgomery (thigh) is unable to suit up in Week 3 against the Falcons, Ozigbo will be a candidate to be elevated as a depth option behind Jahmyr Gibbs and Craig Reynolds.

The Lions released Ozigbo on Sunday.
EDGE Analysis
Ozigbo signed with the Lions on Aug. 9. He appeared in four games for the Broncos in 2022 -- mostly on special teams -- before being cut in late December. 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.
