Romeo Okwara To Mostly Play Defensive End
2 years agoDetroit Lions defensive end Romeo Okwara (Achilles), who continues to work his way back from a season-ending Achilles injury that he suffered four games into last season, will primarily play defensive end in 2022 as the team switches to a more attacking defense. At this time last year, Okwara was preparing to play more outside linebacker. "He's a defensive end. He'll play a rush position in base, and the end or the rush in sub (packages). So, he's a defensive end," defensive line coach Todd Wash said. The last time Okwara played a full season, he had a team-high 10 sacks, 61 QB pressures and three forced fumbles in 2020, so he could get back to being an asset for fantasy managers in IDP formats.
