Player News
Muhammad signed a reserve/future contract with the Broncos on Monday, Mike Klis of 9News Denver reports.
The 25-year-old spent the 2019 campaign on Denver's practice squad and stick with the team for the start of the offseason. Muhammad has yet to make his NFL debut since being drafted in the seventh round by the Titans in 2017.
Muhammad signed with Denver's practice squad Monday, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Muhammad has been a regular on practice squads so far in his two seasons in the league and has yet to see action in a regular-season game. Over four seasons at Cal, the 23-year-old rushed 359 times for 2,073 yards (5.8 YPC) and 11 touchdowns while catching 55 passes for an additional 571 yards and three scores.
Muhammad was waived by the Broncos on Saturday, Ryan O'Halloran of The Denver Post reports.
Muhammad was going to have to make an impact at training camp in order to jump the depth ahead of him, but he was ultimately unable to do so. The 24-year-old has been a practice-squad regular throughout his first two seasons in the league and appears on track to do so again.
Muhammad rushed 11 times for 70 yards and brought in one of three targets for six yards in the Broncos' 20-7 preseason win over the Cardinals on Thursday. He also fumbled once, but it was recovered by the offense.
Muhammad's final line appeared significantly more efficient than the one he'd generated during last Saturday's loss to the Rams, as a game-long 47-yard scamper significantly boosted his numbers. The 2017 seventh-round pick is battling Devontae Jackson for a possible No. 4 running back role, and with the latter also having performed well Thursday, it will be interesting to see which of the two garners a final roster spot.
