Bears Elevating RB Salvon Ahmed

Ahmed suffered a gruesome ankle injury after a hip-drop tackle during practice last year and finished the year on injured reserve.

Ahmed, 27, was a one-year starter at Washington and an honorable mention All-Pac-12 selection in 2019. He signed with the 49ers as an undrafted free agent in May before being released during camp.

He later rejoined the team’s practice squad but was waived before the Dolphins claimed him in 2020. The Dolphins brought him back on an exclusive rights deal, and he remained with the team through 2023.

The Broncos signed Ahmed after his tenure with the Dolphins, but they let him go, and he caught on with the Colts last offseason. 

In 2023, Salvon Ahmed appeared in eight games for the Dolphins and rushed for 61 yards on 22 carries (2.8 YPC), along with 16 receptions for 88 yards and two total touchdowns.
