2024 Fantasy Outlook
A fifth-round pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, Wattenberg should contend to be he Broncos' starting center in 2024. The 27-year-old has played both center and guard in his two NFL seasons, so his versatility could afford him the opportunity to be used in different roles. Nonetheless, Wattenberg will have the important responsibility of building a strong chemistry with whoever is under center when the season starts, especially with a potential rookie at quarterback in Bo Nix.

Lands on IR
Wattenberg (ankle) was placed on the Reserve/Injured List on Saturday, Chris Tomasson of The Denver Gazette reports.
ANALYSIS
Wattenberg has dealt with an ankle injury since the middle of training camp, and the nagging issue will now sideline him for at least Denver's next four games. He worked as the team's primary center through the first five games, and Alex Forsyth is now the best bet to take over Watteberg's vacated role.
