Okereke (hip) will not participate at practice Wednesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Scouting Report
Has very good speed for a linebacker, so he can stay with tight ends in coverage with aplomb. Can even cover a few slow-footed slot receivers at the NFL level. Is also a sure-handed tackler who reads plays well. Lacks a bit of bulk, so O-linemen can knock him off the line of scrimmage on occasion. Can make plays but is not a huge threat to get to the quarterback.
Long Range Potential: Quality linebacker.
