Atlanta Falcons Cornerback Jeff Okudah Suffers Training Camp Injury

 

The Atlanta Falcons come into 2023 on the back of another disappointing season, but with some high end talent in a division that's wide open, they're expected to compete for the division crown behind young QB Desmond Ridder this season.

One underrated move they made this off-season was to land former first-round pick in cornerback Jeff Okudah, but unfortunately on Friday, he was carted off the field after suffering an apparent leg injury, with the team worried it could be a major injury.

In his time with the Lions, Okudah never quite lived up to the hype, but alongside A.J. Terrell in Atlanta, he has the chance to establish himself as a solid starter in the NFL, so the team will be hoping he can get back onto the field very, very soon.
