Role shrinks in Williams' return
Igwebuike caught his only target for negative four yards during Sunday's 13-10 loss to Cleveland.
Analysis: Despite the absence of Jermar Jefferson (ankle/knee), the return of No. 2 running back Jamaal Williams kept Igwebuike in a tertiary role. As long as Williams and D'Andre Swift maintain their health, the converted safety won't be seeing much, if any, offensive work on game days.

Makes most of opportunity
Igwebuike rushed the ball twice for 56 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 16-16 tie against Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Igwebuike was elevated up the depth chart as Jamaal Williams (thigh) was forced to miss another game and Jermar Jefferson (ankle) exited Sunday's contest in the first half. Though that largely benefited D'Andre Swift -- he saw a career-high 33 carries -- Igwebuike found the end zone on a 42-yard rush on the Lions' first drive of the second half. Pending the health of both Williams and Jefferson, Igwebuike could serve as a change-of-pace back for a Week 11 matchup against Cleveland.

Totals 58 yards in Williams' stead
Igwebuike rushed three times for 18 yards while catching three of three targets for 40 yards during Sunday's 44-6 loss to Philadelphia.
Analysis: Igwebuike saw his first offensive snaps of the season thanks to the absence of Jamaal Williams (groin). The converted safety looked good doing it, too, in addition to having his best day as a kick returner. However, with Williams having a Week 9 bye to recover, it's possible Igwebuike is banished back to special-teams-only status when Detroit travels to Pittsburgh in Week 10.

No offensive snaps
Igwebuike logged 19 snaps on special teams during Sunday's 41-33 loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: The converted safety didn't see any snaps on offense. Instead, Igwebuike filled multiple roles on special teams where his biggest impact came at kick returner.

Secures roster spot
Igwebuike secured a spot on the Lions' initial 53-man roster, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
Analysis: The converted safety apparently showed enough promise to make the team over Dedrick Mills and Craig Reynolds. While Igwebuike won't see many touches on offense unless Jamaal Williams or Jermar Jefferson joins D'Andre Swift (groin) on the injury report, Igwebuike should contribute on special teams right away.

Scores again
Igwebuike rushed seven times for 25 yards and one touchdown during Friday's preseason loss to the Colts. He also gained 90 yards on three kickoff returns.
Analysis: Continuing to improve as a running back after converting from safety this offseason, Igwebuike seems to be making a solid case for a potential No. 4 job at running back behind D'Andre Swift (groin), Jamaal Williams and Jermar Jefferson. It helps that he fared better as a kick returner than Craig Reynolds (24 yards on one return) did.

Finds end zone
Igwebuike rushed seven times for 21 yards and a touchdown while catching his only target for four yards during Saturday's preseason loss to the Steelers.
Analysis: Igwebuike was bottled up on most of his attempts, but he showed some burst on an eight-yard touchdown run to start the fourth quarter. With each of D'Andre Swift (groin), Jamaal Williams and Jermar Jefferson likely to be rested during Detroit's preseason finale Friday against the Colts, the converted safety could see even more work on the ground alongside Dedrick Mills and Craig Reynolds.

Switching to running back
Igwebuike is being moved to running back during the start of training camp, Kyle Meinke of MLive.com reports.
Analysis: After bouncing around the league as a safety since going undrafted in 2018, Igwebuike is not only getting a look at running back but kick returner as well. However, the Northwestern product is buried on the depth chart at both positions and Igwebuike remains a long shot to make the final roster out of training camp.
