  • Okereke recorded 11 tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss against the Panthers. As usual, Okereke paced Giants linebackers in snaps (55) in Week 10, and he posted nine-plus tackles for his third consecutive game. He projects as a solid IDP option in most formats for the home stretch of the season.

  • Okereke notched nine tackles (five solo), including one for a loss, in a defeat against the Commanders on Sunday. Okereke finished second on New York in tackles behind Micah McFadden, who racked up 14. Okereke has 23 stops over the past two weeks after averaging a modest (by his standards) 5.9 tackles through his first seven contests. The veteran linebacker has 64 total stops through nine games as he seeks to reach 130 tackles for the fourth consecutive campaign.

  • Okereke totaled 14 tackles (seven solo), including 0.5 sacks, while also forcing and recovering a fumble in a loss to Pittsburgh on Monday Night Football in Week 8. Okereke was all over the place Monday, finishing with more tackles than any player on the field by a considerable margin. His biggest play came in the latter portion of the fourth quarter, as he combined with Micah McFadden on a sack of a scrambling Russell Wilson, punched the ball out of the QB's grasp and recovered the fumble himself. The double-digit tackle effort was the first of the season for Okereke after he logged seven such performances last year.

  • Okereke recorded eight tackles (one solo), including 0.5 sacks, in Sunday's 21-15 win against Cleveland. Okereke finished as New York's second-leading tackler behind Cor'Dale Flott. The linebacker also was one of a whopping nine Giants to notch at least a half-sack. After registering double-digit tackles in seven contests last season, Okereke hasn't yet done so in 2024, but he is already more than halfway toward a new career high in sacks with 1.5 through three contests.

  • Okereke enters the 2024 campaign as New York's defensive anchor after leading the team with 149 tackles (including 2.5 sacks) last season while also recording four forced fumbles and 10 defensed passes (including two interceptions). After four years with Indianapolis, Okereke joined the Giants ahead of last season and shined in his first campaign in New York. He recorded career-best marks in sacks, pass defenses and forced fumbles while finishing two tackles shy of his career-high total in that category. Okereke surprisingly didn't make the Pro Bowl and didn't earn an All-Pro selection, though NFL.com writer Kevin Patra named him as the Giants' "unsung hero." Okereke is set to lead New York's linebacker corps again in 2024 and is a solid IDP option after averaging 150 tackles over the past two seasons.
