Signing with Carolina

Aug 29 6:39pm

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.
