(Isaiah J. Downing-USA TODAY Sports)
Denver Broncos pass rusher Durell Nchami reverted to the team's injured reserve list after clearing waivers on Wednesday morning.
Nchami (6-4, 258 pounds) was waived with an injury designation when the Broncos set their 53-man roster on Tuesday. He goes on the season-ending IR list, so unless Denver reaches an injury settlement and cuts him, Nchami won't be eligible to play in 2024.

Nchami, 24, joined the team's practice squad last December and re-signed with the team following the 2023 season. He joins fellow pass rusher Ronnie Perkins and offensive lineman Quinn Bailey on the team's season-ending IR list. Cornerback Damarri Mathis was designated to return from IR and he will be eligible to re-join the active roster in Week 5.
The Broncos are carrying four outside linebackers on the 53-man roster: Baron Browning , Jonathon Cooper , Jonah Elliss and Nik Bonitto .
If they clear waivers, Dondrea Tillman and Thomas Incoom will likely be candidates to return on the practice squad to add more depth at OLB.
