Moving to Denver
Roach (knee) is slated to sign a two-year contract worth up to $8 million with the Broncos, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Roach finished last season on injured reserve due to a knee injury but still managed to compete in 12 contests for the Saints, recording a combined 38 tackles. The 25-year-old will reunite with his former head coach, Sean Payton, and he should bolster Denver's depth at nose tackle.

Finishes season on IR
Roach (knee) logged 38 tackles and three passes defended across 12 appearances during the 2023 season.
Analysis: Roach logged a career high in tackles before sustaining a significant knee injury that sent him to injured reserve for the final five games of the 2023 season. The 25-year-old, who signed with the Saints as an undrafted free agent in 2020, has played a fairly sizable role as a rotational defensive tackle over the past two seasons, though he's now missed nine games due to injury over that span.

May need knee surgery
Coach Dennis Allen said Monday that Roach has a knee injury that could require surgery, John Hendrix of SI.com reports.
Analysis: The exact diagnosis isn't known at this point, but at the very least, it's a bad sign for Roach's chances of suiting up in Week 14 versus the Panthers. More details should emerge as New Orleans starts to prepare for that game.

Lands on IR
The Saints placed Roach (undisclosed) on injured reserve Thursday.

Ruled out Sunday
Roach (knee) is ruled out for Sunday's game against the Eagles.
Analysis: Roach played just 14 snaps against the Titans last week in his return from a three-game absence. His inability to play again this week means Christian Ringo should see most of his snaps as a result.
