Julian Okwara Joins Philadelphia Eagles

The former Lions linebacker moves to bolster Eagles' pass rush amid contract negotiations with Haason Reddick.

Julian Okwara, former Detroit Lions outside linebacker, has signed with the Philadelphia Eagles.
Okwara's move comes after a fluctuating tenure with the Lions, marked by injuries and inconsistent performance.
The Eagles aim to bolster their pass rushing capabilities with Okwara's addition, amidst a contract showdown with Pro Bowl player Haason Reddick.
Okwara's career with the Lions included 9 sacks, 54 combined tackles, and a notable best season in 2021.
The Lions are expected to upgrade their edge rusher position during the 2024 offseason, with potential interest in prominent free agents and draft prospects.
