Impact Uwazurike was one of ten players suspended for violating the league's gambling policy in 2023, and he's now eligible to participate in all team activities after being reinstated Monday. The 2022 fourth-round pick out of Iowa State appeared in eight regular-season games during his rookie campaign, recording 17 total tackles and one pass defended.

Depth piece for Denver The Broncos selected Uwazurike in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, 116th overall.

Impact Uwazurike is a hulking defensive lineman that likely fits best as a three-technique given his 5.32 40-yard dash. The 6-foot-6 Iowa State product did register nine sacks last season en route to All-Big 12 honors, but as a primary inside tackle, Uwazurike might find his best value in the NFL as a special teams/field-goal blocking specialist (two blocked field goals in college).
