Signs with Kansas City
Okafor has signed a three-year, $18 million contract with the Chiefs, Terez A. Paylor of Yahoo Sports reports.
Analysis: Since the Saints eventually need to let 2018 first-rounder Marcus Davenport grow into the starting defensive end role opposite 2018 All-Pro Cameron Jordan, it made sense for Okafor to sign elsewhere. A Chiefs team -- that no longer has Dee Ford -- is a good fit. In Kansas City, Okafor should immediately step into the starting lineup and command plenty of playing time.

To hit open market
Despite agreeing to a two-year contract with New Orleans last offseason, Okafor is scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent at the start of the league year March 13, Herbie Toepe of NFL.com reports.
Analysis: At the time Okafor signed, he was coming back from an Achilles injury that prematurely ended his 2017 season. As part of the deal, Okafor's representatives reportedly bargained for a clause in Okafor's contract that allowed the defensive end to become an unrestricted free agent if he totaled at least three sacks in 2018. Since Okafor ultimately recorded four sacks, he was able to trigger the clause, which now sets the 28-year-old up for a potential pay raise on the open market this offseason.

Practices in full
Okafor (knee) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Nick Underhill of The New Orleans Advocate reports.
Analysis: Okafor was limited in practice to begin the week due to a hyperextension in his knee, but he now appears to have fully recovered. Barring any setbacks, expect the 27-year-old defensive end to draw his usual start during Sunday's divisional-round playoff game against the Eagles.

Nursing knee injury
Okafor (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: Okafor is nursing a light hyperextension in his knee, putting his status for Sunday's divisional-round game against the Eagles up in the air. The 27-year-old's limited participation in practice is a positive sign, and Okafor appears to be trending toward drawing his usual start in New Orleans' defensive line.

Dealing with light hyper-extension
Okafor is dealing with a hyperextension, Luke Johnson of The New Orleans Times-Picayune reports.
Analysis: The specifics of the injury haven't been released, but Okafor reassured reporters Wednesday that the issue is nothing serious. By all accounts, Okafor is on track to resume practicing next week. He'll benefit from the Saints' first-round playoff bye.

Brings down quarterback in win
Okafor posted two solo tackles and a sack during Sunday's 48-7 win against the Eagles.
Analysis: Okafor now has a sack in each of the Saints' last two games, vaulting his total to three on the year. Okafor has seen an increased workload as of late with Marcus Davenport (toe) sidelined.

Half-sack in win
Okafor recorded three tackles (two solo) and 0.5 sacks across 38 defensive snaps in Sunday's win over the Bengals.
Analysis: Through nine games, Okafor has 13 tackles and 1.5 sacks. Those numbers are down from last season, but it should be noted that the veteran is now competing with rookie Marcus Davenport (toe) for reps. Davenport (toe) will likely remain out for a few more weeks, which will lead to increased action for Okafor.
