The Jets have placed Odenigbo on injured reserve due to an undisclosed injury, Ethan Greenberg of the team's official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

The nature of Odenigbo's injury remains a mystery at this time, but it is severe enough to land him on IR. He signed with the Jets in late-July and was competing for the opportunity to provide depth on New York's defensive line. The journeyman was selected in the seventh-round of the 2017 NFL Draft by the Vikings and has since seen stints with the Cardinals, Browns, Colts and most recently the Buccaneers' practice squad.

Odenigbo agreed to a deal with the Jets.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo was waived by the Colts prior to the 2022 season concluding. He appeared in 13 games and accumulated 12 tackles, 3.5 sacks, and one forced fumble across 223 defensive snaps prior to being let go. The 29-year-old will now compete for a depth defensive end role during training camp.

Indianaplis waived Odenigbo on Tuesday, JJ Stankevitz of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo appeared in 13 games for the Colts in 2022 and totaled 12 tackles, 3.5 sacks and one forced fumble across 223 defensive snaps. The 2017 seventh-round pick has played for four different teams in five years, but his only noteworthy campaign came with the Vikings in 2019, when he recorded seven sacks, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble.

Odenigbo had a QB hit and played 11 snaps on defense in Sunday's tie at Houston.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo begins the season as a reserve on the defensive line. He exploded for seven sacks in just 372 snaps during his age-25 season with the Vikings, but he's been relatively quiet since then, recording just 3.5 sacks over his last 852 snaps. He'll work as a depth option behind Kwity Paye and Yannick Ngakoue in 2022.

Odenigbo is signing a deal with Indianapolis on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo will join his fourth NFL team as he heads into his fifth season as a pro. He exploded for seven sacks in just 372 snaps during his age-25 season with the Vikings, but he's been relatively quiet since then, recording just 3.5 sacks over his last 852 snaps. He'll work as a depth option behind Kwity Paye and Yannick Ngakoue in 2022.

Odenigbo was activated from the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo's return comes at an opportune time with the Browns set to take on the Packers on Saturday. Adding to the significance of his return, Jadeveon Clowney has yet to clear COVID protocols, and Myles Garrett is questionable with a groin injury. If neither can return, Odenbigo is likely looking at a starting job on the defensive line and a notable increase in snaps.

Odenigbo was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo and fellow backup defensive end Takkarist McKinley both landed in the NFL's COVID-19 protocols this week. If they are both unavailable for Saturday's contest against the Raiders, then the Browns will likely have to elevate someone from the practice squad to provide depth behind Myles Garrett and Jadeveon Clowney.

The Browns signed Odenigbo to the active roster Tuesday.

EDGE Analysis

Odenigbo served as a solid edge rusher for the Vikings over the past two seasons, recording 58 tackles and 10.5 sacks. He'll add depth at linebacker after Anthony Walker (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve.

The Giants released Odenigbo on Tuesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Following a strong two-year stint with the Vikings, Odenigbo agreed to a one-year deal with the Giants in March. Odenigbo's time with New York is now done, as the Giants already have plenty of depth at linebacker. The 27-year-old will now look to join a new team before the start of the season.

Odenigbo (chest) agreed to a one-year deal with the Giants on Wednesday.

EDGE Analysis

The 26-year-old spent the past two seasons in Minnesota and totaled 35 tackles (16 solo) and 3.5 sacks in 15 games during 2020. Odenigbo should at least fill a rotational role in New York's pass rush in 2021.
