Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: On track to play Monday
Wattenberg (undisclosed) was not listed on the Broncos' official injury report Thursday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Wattenberg was dealing with an undisclosed injury during training camp, but he appears to be past it as Week 1 prep begins for the Broncos. He should resume his starting role at center Monday at Kansas City.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Limited in Monday's practice
Wattenberg (undisclosed) was a limited participant in Monday's practice, Jon Heath of broncoswire.com reports.
Wattenberg suffered an injury during last Monday's training camp session. The center's ability to return to the field, even in a limited capacity, is a good sign that the undisclosed issue isn't severe. There is a strong chance Wattenberg will be fully healthy and ready for the start of the regular season.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Dealing with injury
Wattenberg (undisclosed) did not participate in Saturday's training camp practice, Zac Stevens of TheDNVR.com reports.
Per Stevens, Wattenberg sustained the injury during Monday's practice. The nature of the injury hasn't been announced, but it's prevented the 2022 fifth-rounder from practicing and puts him in jeopardy of missing Friday's preseason opener against the Falcons. Alex Forsyth would be in line to see more reps at center with the fist-team offense in Wattenberg's potential continued absence.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Cleared to play vs. New England
Wattenberg (shoulder) is active for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Wattenberg was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the fourth-year pro has been officially cleared to play in his first game since Week 16 after recovering from a shoulder injury. He should reclaim his starting job at center, while Alex Forsyth -- who filled in at center in Wattenberg's absence -- will not play Sunday due to an ankle injury.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Activated from IR
The Broncos activated Wattenberg (shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday.
Wattenberg is still listed as questionable to play in Sunday's elimination game, but the activation from injured reserve is a strong sign that the center will be able to suit up. With Alex Forsyth (ankle) also listed as questionable, the Broncos likely want to have every possible offensive lineman available on the active roster.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Questionable for Sunday
Wattenberg (shoulder) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Patriots.
Wattenberg was a full participant in practice throughout the week, so the center's odds of being activated from injured reserve are high. Alex Forsyth (ankle), who has been operating as the starting center, is also questionable to play. Both linemen will likely be able to suit up, but in a situation where neither can go, Sam Mustipher will be the starting center in Sunday's playoff game.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Designated to return from IR
The Broncos designated Wattenberg (shoulder) to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Wattenberg suffered a shoulder injury in late December that required extensive recovery time. Alex Forsyth (ankle) took over as the starting center in his absence and has played since Week 17. With Forsyth injuring his ankle in last Saturday's overtime playoff victory over the Bills, Wattenberg's potential return for Sunday's AFC Conference Championship Game against the Patriots would be a huge addition to the offensive line. In a doomsday scenario where neither Wattenberg nor Forsyth can suit up, the task of protecting backup quarterback Jarrett Stidham would fall to Sam Mustipher.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: No go for Week 17
Wattenberg (shoulder) has been ruled out for Thursday night's matchup against the Chiefs.
Wattenberg is dealing with an apparent shoulder injury that sidelined him for the team's entire week of practice. In his absence, Alex Forsyth will be a top candidate to draw the start at center versus Kansas City.

Broncos' Luke Wattenberg: Inks four-year extension
Wattenberg and the Broncos agreed on a four-year, $48 million contract extension Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
The deal includes $27 million guaranteed for the 2022 fifth-rounder. The Broncos have locked up another key piece on its offensive front, as Wattenberg has been the team's full-time starter at center over the last two seasons. He missed four games during the 2024 regular season due to an ankle injury, but he has started in each of the Broncos' first 11 games of the 2025 campaign.
