Mile High Report on Albert Okwuegbunam

ArticleDid RB Cody Schrader show enough to make the Broncos roster?August 29, 2026

From the article

Former tight end Albert Okwuegbunam is a great example of this. He had a great game in the finale, and we were having this same conversation, but he was still cut hours later and did not make the practice squad.

Negative signalBust

Okwuegbunam's strong preseason finale didn't prevent his cut; cautionary precedent for Schrader.

Historical cautionary example of preseason finale performance not translating to roster survival. Had a great game in the preseason finale but was cut hours later and did not make the practice squad, illustrating the risk that strong preseason finale performances may not change roster decisions.
