Jeff Okudah Has Core Muscle Surgery
4 years agoDetroit Lions first-round rookie cornerback Jeff Okudah (core) confirmed on his Twitter page that he underwent successful core muscle surgery. "I've been through a roller coaster of emotions this past week, but I just wanted to share with everyone that I underwent a successful core muscle procedure to fix an injury that I've dealt with for a while now," Okudah said. The third overall pick in this year's draft played his last game of his rookie season in Week 11 against the Panthers. His core muscle injury is something that dated back to his college days at Ohio State, so hopefully that won't be an issue for him moving forward. Okudah was inconsistent in 2020, recording 47 combined tackles, one interception and two passes defensed in nine games. Detroit's defense needs to be ignored in Week 15 against the Titans.
