Panthers' Bobby Okereke: Nine tackles, INT in Week 2 win
Okereke recorded nine tackles (six solo) and an interception in Sunday's 34-3 win over the Falcons.
Okereke signed with the Panthers just over three weeks ago and has already carved out a prominent role at linebacker alongside Devin Lloyd. Both made noise against Atlanta, as the duo combined for three interceptions. Through two games, Okereke has logged 15 tackles (nine solo), one QB hit and the interception on one pass breakup across 80.6 percent of the Panthers' defensive snaps.

Panthers' Bobby Okereke: Signing with Carolina
Okereke is signing a contract with the Panthers, NFL reporter Jordan Schultz reports.
Okereke spent the past three seasons with the Giants and is coming off a campaign in which he racked up 143 tackles (78 solo). If fellow linebacker Devin Lloyd (knee) cannot play in Week 1 against the Bears, Okereke could step into a starting linebacker spot, but he will bolster Carolina's defense one way or another.

Giants' Bobby Okereke: Being let go by Giants
The Giants are slated to release Okereke, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
The move will clear $9 million in salary cap space, with $5.4 million left over in dead money. The inside linebacker, who turns 30 in July, is coming off a 2025 regular season in which he recorded a team-high 143 tackles and two picks in 17 games. Despite his age, Okereke is likely to have plenty of suitors in free agency.

Giants' Bobby Okereke: Concludes campaign on high note
Okereke tallied six tackles (three solo), an interception and a fumble recovery in Sunday's 34-17 Week 18 win over Dallas. For the campaign, he posted 143 stops (including 1.0 sacks) along with six defenses passes (including two interceptions) across 17 contests.
Okereke came on strong in the turnover category late in the campaign, with both of his interceptions and his lone fumble recovery taking place over the final two weeks. Beyond that, the veteran linebacker put together another big season of tackling, leading New York with 143 stops and tying for 10th overall in the league in that category. Okereke missed five games due to injury last year, but he's otherwise been very durable, playing all 17 regular-season contests four of the past five campaigns. Okereke will be in the final season of his four-year contract next year.
