From the article

Chig Okonkwo took some time to get revved up in the Commanders offense. An early hamstring set him back and kept him out of Weeks 2-3. He wasn't super involved in Week 4 but has been far better since then, with 11 catches for 129 yards on 13 targets over the last two weeks. That's efficient and explosive production that simply must continue now, to keep some attention off Diggs and be a weapon in the middle of the field.

Expected to see significantly increased involvement and targets

Expected to see significantly increased involvement and targets following McLaurin's injury. Okonkwo has produced efficiently over the last two weeks with 11 catches for 129 yards on 13 targets; his production must continue to keep attention off Diggs and serve as a weapon in the middle of the field. John Bates' presence as a stout blocker allows Okonkwo to work from almost anywhere, enabling offensive coordinator David Blough to treat him as a receiver at times. Okonkwo has excellent potential and now is the time to realize it.
