News

  • Let go by Washington

    Obada was released by the Commanders on Tuesday.

    Analysis: The move opens a spot on the Commanders' 53-man roster for Marshon Lattimore, who was acquired from the Saints on Tuesday. Obada played in each of Washington's last four regular-season games while serving in rotational role at defensive end behind starters Dorance Armstrong and Clelin Ferrell. Over that span, Obada registered three tackles (one solo) across 52 defensive snaps. He should get interest from teams looking to add depth at defensive end.

  • Set for season debut

    Obada (lower leg) is active Sunday against the Ravens.

    Analysis: Obada was activated from the reserve/PUP list Saturday, as he remained focused on his recovery from multiple leg fractures suffered last November. The return of the 32-year-old should be a boost to the Commanders' defensive line depth.

  • Lifted from reserve/PUP list

    The Commanders activated Obada (lower leg) from the reserve/PUP list Saturday.

    Analysis: Obada was placed on the PUP list ahead of Washington's regular-season opener and has been working his way back since. The defensive lineman had his practice window opened Oct. 2 and was able to log a trio of full practice sessions this week, giving him a good chance of returning to action Sunday versus Baltimore. Upon his return, Obada will likely take on a rotational role.

  • Returning to practice

    Obada (lower leg) was designated to return from the reserve/PUP list Wednesday.

    Analysis: Obada has missed the mandatory four games since being placed on the PUP list as camp opened. The 32-year-old will now have a 21-day window to practice with the team before he needs to be added to the 53-man roster. Considering the amount of time Obada has missed, it's unlikely he'd suit up Sunday against the Browns, but greater clarity will likely be available closer to the Week 5 matchup.

  • Opens season on PUP list

    Obada (lower leg) was placed on the reserve/PUP list by the Commanders on Tuesday, Zach Selby of the team's official website reports.

    Analysis: Obada failed to appear in a game this preseason while continuing to recover from multiple lower leg fractures that he sustained in November and he'll now be forced to sit out the team's first four games of the regular season while on the PUP list. Obada is first eligible to return to the field in Week 5 against the Browns on Oct. 6.

  • Heads to PUP list

    Obada (lower leg) was placed on the active/PUP list Wednesday, Chick Hernandez of WUSA 9 reports.

    Analysis: Obada suffered multiple lower leg fractures in late November, missing the final six games of the 2023 regular season after undergoing surgery. He is expected to be ready for Week 1 of the regular season, but he'll require some additional time before he'll be able to practice in a full capacity at the Commanders' training camp.

  • Back with Washington

    The Commanders re-signed Obada (lower leg) on Thursday.

    Analysis: Obada returns for a third consecutive season in Washington, after having played just five games in 2023 before needing to undergo right leg surgery. After a full offseason to recover, Odaba figures to be ready to contribute as a depth defensive end Week 1.

  • Placed on injured reserve

    The Commanders placed Obada (lower leg) on injured reserve Monday.

    Analysis: Obada will head to injured reserve after suffering a lower leg fracture during Sunday's loss to the Giants. The 31-year-old underwent surgery Monday and is expected to miss the remainder of season, and in his absence K.J. Henry and Andre Jones should be in line for increased playing time.

    Obada underwent successful surgery to repair multiple lower leg fractures suffered in Washington's 31-19 loss to the Giants on Sunday, Ben Standig of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Obada was carted off the field in the first quarter after suffering the injury, which will likely put an end to his 2023 campaign. The 31-year-old appeared in five games for the Commanders this season and recorded two tackles.

  • Out for game

    Obada (leg) has been ruled out for the remainder of Washington's game versus the Giants on Sunday, John Keim of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Odaba was carted off the field in the first quarter and will now be out for the rest of the game. In the 31-year-old's absence, K.J. Henry and Andre Jones should see increased playing time for the remainder of Sunday's contest.

  • Sitting Week 7

    Obada (coach's decision) is listed as inactive for Sunday's matchup with the Giants, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: One week after coming off injured reserve and making his season debut, Obada is a healthy scratch in New York. His next opportunity to suit up will come in Week 8 versus the Eagles.

  • Good to go

    Obada (knee) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Sunday's game in Atlanta.

    Analysis: Obada is set to make his season debut after being designated to return from injured reserve earlier in the week. The defensive end is expected to provide depth behind Chase Young and Montez Sweat on the edge, assuming he avoids any setbacks.

    Published: Sat, Oct 14 at 9:53am by Rotowire.com

  • Questionable to play at Atlanta

    Obada (knee) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game at the Falcons.

    Analysis: Obada was designated to return from Washington's injured reserve list Wednesday, and he practiced in full Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, so it seems he has a good chance of playing in Week 6. He managed four sacks over 370 defensive snaps last season.

  • Designated to return

    Obada (knee) was designated to return from injured reserve Wednesday, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: Obada was placed on IR ahead of the 2023 campaign with a patella injury, keeping him sidelined for the first five games of the season. The 31-year-old will now have a 21-day window to return to practice before he must either be restored to the active roster or revert to IR for the remainder of the season.

  • Headed to IR

    The Commanders placed Obada (knee) on injured reserve Thursday.

    Analysis: Obada has been dealing with a patella issue with his knee and is now required to sit out for at least the first four games of the 2023 season. He played in all 17 games for the Commanders as a rookie last season, registering 24 tackles (14 solo) and four sacks.

    The Commanders re-signed Obada to a one-year contract Wednesday, NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports.

    Analysis: Obada, 30, appeared in all 17 games for the Commanders last season, recording four sacks as a deep reserve on roughly one third of the defensive snaps.

  • Clear to play Sunday night

    Washington upgraded Obada (finger) on Saturday, meaning he'll be available for Sunday's game versus the Giants.

    Analysis: Obada apparently sustained an injury to his finger at practice Friday, but it doesn't look like it will hold him back in Week 15. He should continue to rotate in at defensive end behind Montez Sweat and James Smith-Williams.

    Published: Sat, Dec 17 at 3:22pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Late addition to injury report

    Obada (finger) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Giants, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Analysis: Obada was added to the injury report after apparently suffering an injury during practice. He still managed a limited session, which bodes well for his potential availability for the important divisional showdown. Obada has served a significant role along the Commanders' defensive line this season, tallying 18 total tackles with three sacks across 13 games.

  • Joins Washington

    Obada agreed to a contract with the Commanders on Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.

    Analysis: Obada spent the 2021 campaign with the Bills following three years with the Panthers. For his career, he's registered 62 tackles, 11 sacks, four pass deflections, two fumble recoveries and one forced fumble across 52 appearances. Obada will likely provide depth behind Montez Sweat and Chase Young (knee) during the 2022 campaign.

  • Not listed on injury report

    Obada (ankle) was estimated as full participant during Tuesday's walkthrough.

    Analysis: Obada was unable to practice ahead of Week 18 and was ultimately sidelined for the regular-season finale. However, it appears he's on track to return for Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Patriots. The fourth-year pro has 12 tackles and 3.5 sacks in 10 appearances for the Bills this season.

  • Will be available Sunday

    Obada (hip) is active for Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Obada will be available Week 14 after being sidelined the week prior due to a hip injury. In a rotational role along the Bills' defensive line, the fourth-year pro has recorded eight tackles, 1.5 sacks and one pass deflection across six appearances.

    Published: Sun, Dec 12 at 12:22pm by Rotowire.com

  • Ready to return

    Obada (hip) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Obada was able to log a full practice Friday and should be ready to return to the field despite the questionable tag after missing Week 13 against New England. If that happens, he'll return to his rotational role along the defensive line.

    Published: Fri, Dec 10 at 5:35pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Out with hip injury

    Obada (hip) is inactive for Monday's matchup against the Patriots.

    Analysis: Over his last three games, Obada has played 68 defensive snaps, registering five tackles, 1.5 sacks and one pass deflection. In his absence, Mario Addison, A.J. Epenesa and Carlos Basham are all candidates for slightly increased roles.

  • Sack in win

    Obada recorded two tackles (two solo) along with one sack in Sunday's 45-17 win over the Jets.

    Analysis: Obada recorded his first sack of the season in just his second game played this year. The 29-year-old has added some depth to an already loaded Buffalo defense, as he played 45 percent of the defensive snaps Sunday. Look for Obada's usage to increase as he strives to match his 5.5-sack total of last season after missing a period of time this year.

  • Back to full health

    Obada (calf) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Obada couldn't suit up versus the Dolphins in Week 2, but he looks set to return for Sunday's matchup against Washington. He only played 26 percent of defensive snaps Week 1.

    Published: Wed, Sep 22 at 12:51pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Sitting against Dolphins

    Obada (calf) is inactive Week 2 against Miami.

    Analysis: Obada was added to the injury report Friday, and the issue will ultimately hold him out Week 2. His absence will hurt the depth of the defensive line, but considering he only saw 15 snaps last week, and the fact that Star Lotulelei will be back from a calf injury, it should be largely business as usual for the position group.

    Published: Sun, Sep 19 at 8:58am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Questionable for Week 2

    Obada was listed as a limited participant Friday due to a calf injury.

    Analysis: There's a chance Obada was injured during Friday's session, as he came out of Week 1 without an injury and practiced fully all week. The Bills head into a key division showdown in pretty good injury shape, though they're always going to be slightly stronger if Obada can fill his depth role. The veteran saw 15 defensive snaps in Week 1.

  • Carolina-Buffalo pipeline continues

    Obada signed a one-year deal with the Bills on Wednesday.

    Analysis: Obada won't have too much trouble getting comfortable in his new digs, as several Bills -- including general manager Brandon Beane and head coach Sean McDermott -- have spent time with the Panthers organization. Obada, who hails from Nigeria, has worked his way through the NFL's international program. He'll try to land a spot on a deep Bills team as a reserve defensive end.

    Published: Wed, Mar 24 at 7:10am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Tops five sacks

    Obada finished the 2020 season with 18 tackles (10 solo), 5.5 sacks, two fumble recoveries and one fumble forced in 16 games.

    Analysis: Obada only played around 40 percent of Carolina's defensive snaps, yet his sack total placed second on the team. It also marked a new career high for Obada, who the Panthers will need to make a decision on as a restricted free agent this offseason.

  • Ready to rock

    Obada (knee) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Bill Voth of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Obada drew the questionable tag despite participating in full at practice this week, so it was a good sign the defensive lineman was still active. Obada has worked in a rotational role throughout the season, racking up 14 tackles (seven solo) and 3.5 sacks through 12 games, so expect him to continue that role for Week 14.

    Published: Sun, Dec 13 at 9:07am by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Continues strong stretch

    Obada made two tackles, including 1.5 sacks, in Sunday's 20-0 win over the Lions.

    Analysis: Obada has come on strong lately, totaling 3.5 sacks over Carolina's last four games. That stretch now sees Obada ranked second on the team in sacks and could earn him more snaps going forward.

  • Ready for Thursday night

    Odaba (back) is active for Thursday's game against the Falcons, Myles Simmons of the Panthers' official site reports.

    Analysis: Odaba was listed as questionable for Thursday's contest, despite the fact that he logged a trio of full practices leading up to the game. He'll play his usual rotational role at defensive end against Matt Ryan and the Falcons.

    Published: Thu, Oct 29 at 4:13pm by Rotowire.com
    More news and analysis available atNFL.com
  • Rejoins Panthers

    Obada was re-signed by the Panthers on Tuesday after clearing waivers, David Newton of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Obada's roster spot isn't very secure considering the team was willing to run the risk of having him go through waivers, but the defensive lineman should be on the Week 1 roster against the Raiders now that he's back on the 53-man roster.

    Published: Tue, Sep 8 at 1:24pm by Rotowire.com

  • Adds another year in Carolina

    Obada signed a one-year contract extension with the Panthers on Monday, Max Henson of the team's official site reports.

    Analysis: Obada worked in a reserve role this year, averaging 19.5 defensive snaps per game, and he accrued 24 tackles and a pass breakup. He was set to be an exclusive-rights free agent in March, but the 27-year-old will re-up early. The Panthers figure to add defensive ends either through free agency or the draft, but Obada could be in line for an increased workload in 2020 if neither Vernon Butler or Gerald McCoy re-sign.
