Inks future deal with Kansas City
Kansas City signed Oladokun to a reserve/future contract Tuesday, Charles Goldman of A to Z sports reports.
Analysis: After failing to make the team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp, Oladokun was invited back by Kansas City in mid-October to join the practice squad. He was elevated for Week 18 against the Broncos to serve as the backup quarterback behind Carson Wentz while Patrick Mahomes rested. Oladokun will participate in OTAs, minicamp and training camp but seems highly unlikely to win the No. 2 quarterback job behind Mahomes.

Reverts to practice squad
Oladokun reverted to Kansas City's practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Analysis: Oladokun was elevated for Week 18 against Denver with Patrick Mahomes (ankle) given the day off to rest. Oladokun served as the No. 2 quarterback in the contest behind Carson Wentz and logged five offensive snaps, carrying once for five yards and taking a six-yard loss on a sack. Mahomes will almost certainly be back in action when Kansas City plays its next game in the AFC divisional round, so Oladokun isn't expected to be active for that contest.

Gets elevation for Week 18
The Chiefs elevated Oladokun from their practice squad to their active roster Saturday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Analysis: Patrick Mahomes (ankle) isn't expected to play Sunday against Denver with Kansas City having wrapped up the AFC's No. 1 playoff seed, so the Chiefs are likely to deploy Oladokun as their backup QB behind Carson Wentz. Oladokun has yet to see action in an NFL game, and he's spent the last two years with Kansas City's practice squad. He probably won't see much, if any, action Sunday unless Wentz is forced to exit the contest.

Signed to Chiefs' practice squad
Kansas City signed Oladokun to the practice squad Tuesday, Matt Derrick of ChiefsDigest.com reports.
Analysis: Oladokun takes the practice squad spot left by Bailey Zappe, who signed with Cleveland on Tuesday. A 2022 seventh-round pick who is still looking for a chance to make his regular-season debut, Oladokun worked as the Chiefs' practice squad quarterback last season and is familiar with the system.

Staying in Kansas City
The Chiefs signed Oladokun to a reserve/future contract Wednesday, Aaron Wilson of KPRC 2 Houston reports.
Analysis: Oladokun spend the 2022 season on Kansas City's practice squad, but he wasn't ultimately called up for in-game action. With longtime backup Chad Henne having announced his retirement, however, Oladokun could potentially have an opportunity to compete for an elevated role this offseason.

Done in Pittsburgh
The Steelers released Oladokun on Tuesday, Aaron Wilson of ProFootballNetwork.com reports.
Analysis: Oladokun was selected in the seventh round of the 2022 draft, but evidently he didn't show his coaches enough to earn a roster spot ahead of the regular season. Pittsburgh is left with a competition between Mitch Trubisky, Kenny Pickett and Mason Rudolph at quarterback, while Oladokun will have to look for another opportunity elsewhere.
