  • Titans' Chidobe Awuzie: Remaining on IR for Week 13

    Awuzie (groin) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Awuzie will miss a ninth straight game due to a groin injury he suffered during the Titans' Week 3 loss to the Packers. He was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, and while he was able to participate in practice all week in a limited capacity, he hasn't progressed enough in his recovery to return for Week 13. Awuzie's next chance to play will be Week 14 when the Titans host the Jaguars on Sunday, Dec. 8.

  • Titans' Chidobe Awuzie: Cleared to resume practicing

    Tennessee designated Awuzie (groin) for return to practice from its injured reserve list Wednesday, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Awuzie has spent the last eight games on the sidelines due to a groin injury he suffered in Week 3 versus the Packers, but it now looks like he could be close to suiting back up. Tennessee has a 21-day window during which it can officially activate him before it would have to put him back on the shelf for the rest of the season.

  • Titans' Chidobe Awuzie: Officially placed on IR

    The Titans placed Awuzie (groin) on injured reserve Friday. Coach Brian Callahan had already said this move was coming this week. Awuzie started all three games to begin the season, registering four tackles (three solo) before going down last week against the Packers.

Awuzie will be eligible to return in Week 9 against the Patriots since the Titans have a Week 5 bye.

  • Titans' Chidobe Awuzie: Extended absence likely

    Head coach Brian Callahan said Monday that Awuzie's groin injury will keep him out for weeks, Paul Kuharsky of PaulKuharsky.com reports. Awuzie exited Sunday's loss to the Packers early with the injury and was unable to return. Any extended absence, which it appears he is facing, will be a blow to the Titans' secondary and lead to extra opportunities for Jarvis Brownlee and Darrell Baker.

    Awuzie (calf) was left off Tennessee's injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Bears, Jim Wyatt of the Titans' official site reports. Awuzie was sidelined for the past month with a calf injury, but it appears he's moved past the issue just in time for Tennessee's Week 1 outing.

  • Titans' Chidobe Awuzie: To remain out this week

    Awuzie (calf) won't play this week but could return to practice soon, Terry McCormick of TitanInsider.com reports. Awuzie has missed the bulk of training camp due to a calf injury and will likely end up being sidelined for all three of the Titans' preseason games. The fact that the veteran cornerback is expected to resume practicing soon, though, bodes well for his likelihood of suiting up Week 1 of the regular season. Awuzie is looking to bolster Tennessee's secondary after recording 57 tackles (43 solo) and six pass defenses over 15 regular-season games with Cincinnati last season.

  • Bengals' Chidobe Awuzie: Missing season finale

    Awuzie (shoulder) is inactive ahead of Sunday's game against the Browns. The veteran cornerback was originally listed as questionable after he went from a limited practice session Thursday to a DNP on Friday, but it now seems as if he won't be able to suit up in Week 18.

    Awuzie (knee) does not carry an injury designation going into Thursday's game at Baltimore.

  • Bengals' Chidobe Awuzie: Cleared to return to practice

    Awuzie (knee) was removed from the active/PUP list Tuesday.

  • Bengals' Chidobe Awuzie: Placed on PUP list

    Awuzie (knee) was placed on the active//PUP list Sunday. Awuzie said Sunday that he was "heading in a positive direction" and "feeling really good right now," according to Charlie Goldsmith of The Cincinnati Enquirer. However, the 28-year-old is still not fully recovered from his torn ACL suffered in Week 8 of last season. He'll be eligible to play in the preseason if he can prove himself healthy, although a Week 1 return is the more realistic goal.

  • Bengals' Chidobe Awuzie: Continues to rehab at minicamp

    Awuzie (knee) was rehabbing during the first day of Cincinnati's mandatory minicamp Tuesday, Paul Dehner Jr. of The Athletic reports. Awuzie tore his ACL in Week 8 last season, but he said earlier in the offseason that he believes he'll be ready to go by Week 1 of 2023. Per Dehner, the cornerback looked explosive and fluid on the side fields Tuesday, confirming Awuzie's notion that his rehab is ahead of schedule. Regardless, the Bengals presumably won't push Awuzie into full-team drills until training camp. With Eli Apple out of the picture, Awuzie is slated for a starting outside job when he's back to full strength.

The cornerback said that his rehab is going well, and his goal is to be ready for Week 1 of the upcoming campaign. With Eli Apple no longer a part of the team, Awuzie, when healthy, could operate in a more significant role in Cincinnati's secondary.

  • Bengals' Chidobe Awuzie: No timetable for return

    Awuzie (knee) won't put a timeline on his return, Geoff Hobson of the team's official site reports. Awuzie hopes to be ready for the start of the season after tearing his ACL during Cincinnati's Week 8 loss to Cleveland last year. The 2017 second-round pick does not want to rush his recovery but will look to ramp up his running program later this month, and if the 27-year-old can get healthy he should be poised for a bigger role this season following Eli Apple's departure.
