Yahoo Sports NFL on Chigoziem Okonkwo
From the article
Chig is an example of why you don't draw definitive conclusions about an NFL player in a 6-game sample... I expect to see Okonkwo's arrow pointing up for the balance of the season
STACKED’s take
Okonkwo trending up after slow start; source projects 560+ yards over season.
Signed to 3-year deal; the source's preferred tight end signing for the Commanders. Viewed as an exciting player who was under-utilized with the Titans and expected to exceed his career-best single season marks of 56 catches, 560 yards, and 2 TDs. Okonkwo has wide receiver skills allowing him to create mismatches against linebackers and safeties; his versatility to line up inline, in the slot, or as an H-back offers offensive coordinator David Blough flexibility for multiple-tight end sets alongside Ben Sinnott and John Bates. UPDATE: After early struggles (4 catches for 21 yards in first two games), Okonkwo produced 11 catches on 13 targets for 129 yards in his two most recent games, with 71 yards after the catch for the season. Production in latter two games would project to 1,000 yards; his 4 healthy games projected over 15 games would put him at 560 yards. With Terry McLaurin out for the season, the source expects Okonkwo's arrow pointing up for the balance of the season and remains bullish about his 3-year contract outlook.
