description

A single defensive stand away from giving themselves the once-unlikely opportunity to tie Monday Night Football’s game late, the New York Giants found themselves in need of a could-be hero. Tallied already for 13 tackles and plays of every type, Bobby Okereke adjusted his plans to become just that, capturing the Pittsburgh Steelers’ elusive signal caller for a strip sack, alongside favorable field position. Though Okereke’s memorable effort on Monday Night Football went unrewarded in a 26-18 loss on Oct. 28, 2024, the veteran linebacker proved masterful nonetheless, recording 14 tackles (seven solo), a forced fumble (and recovery), and a half-sack.
