Summary

Romeo Okwara is coming off of a torn Achilles. Even so, Coach Campbell says that an August return is the goal for the team and Romeo Okwara. This timetable for return leaves the door open for Romeo to potentially earn his starting role back during camp. Over his first four games of 2021, Romeo accumulated 16 pressures and a sack. The Lions are likely to employ more of a pass-rushing rotation in 2022. Unfortunately for Romeo Okwara, he graded the worst in run defense. He may be the odd one out as the first one off the bench. Romeo Okwara could be a dart throw for the end of the draft with high potential output, especially in the case of injury.
