Giants
In their 17-7 loss to the Bengals, Giants OLB Azeez Ojulari totaled two sacks while filling in for OLB Kayvon Thibodeaux. New York LB Bobby Okereke reviewed Ojulari’s performance which shows their team mentality.
“I thought Azeez was electric,” Okereke said, via Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post. “We all have a lot of faith in Azeez, and his pass-rush ability is very strong. We have a next-man-up mentality at every position, and Azeez just fulfilled that.”
Giants start OLB Brian Burns also praised Ojulari’s strong game and mentioned it didn’t shock him.
“Azeez always showed flashes of what he can do when he got in there,” Burns added. “It’s unfortunate that Thibs went down, but I knew Azeez was ready so I’m not surprised by it.”
