  • Records double-digit tackles

    Okereke registered 11 tackles (nine) solo, with one for a loss, in the Colts' 24-0 loss to the Jaguars on Sunday.

    Analysis: Okereke now has recorded double-digit tackles for the seventh time in his four-year career. Sunday's effort brings the 26-year-old to 18 (15 solo) on the season, putting him on pace to outdo his previous career-best 132 tackles last year. Okereke will look to keep rolling in a tough Week 3 matchup with the Chiefs.

  • Seven tackles in season opener

    Okereke started at weak-side linebacker and had seven total tackles and a pass defensed in Sunday's tie at Houston.

    Analysis: Okereke played on all of the defense's 70 snaps and gave up four receptions on seven targets for just 21 yards, according to Pro Football Focus.

  • Finishes with 132 tackles

    Okereke tallied 132 tackles (89 solo), four pass deflections, two interceptions and one sack in 17 appearances during the 2021 campaign.

    Analysis: Okereke appeared in every game and nearly played every single defensive snap during the Colts' up-and-down campaign. He recorded double-digit tackles in four games en route to his first ever season with 100-plus tackles. The 25-year-old has one year remaining on his rookie contract, so he's expected to be back in the middle of Indianapolis' defense next year, which should mean he'll be a consistent producer in IDP leagues once again.

  • Posts double-digit tackles

    Okereke tallied 10 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's 23-20 loss to the Raiders.

    Analysis: Okereke handled his usual every-down role versus Las Vegas, recording his fourth game of the season with double-digit stops. He remains on the IDP fantasy radar as a relatively high-floor option heading into a Week 18 road matchup against Jacksonville.

  • Picks off rookie QB

    Okereke had three solo tackles, an interception and a pass defensed in Saturday's 27-17 win over the Patriots.

    Analysis: The Colts' linebackers showed that they can do more than tackle, as both Okereke and Darius Leonard intercepted Mac Jones. Okereke returned his interception 16 yards, setting up a third-quarter field goal that gave Indianapolis a comfortable 20-0 lead.

  • Ready to go

    Okereke does not have an injury designation for Saturday's game against New England.

    Analysis: Okereke was unable to practice to start the week due to an illness, though he returned for a full session Thursday. As a result, he should be ready to maintain a key role in the middle of the Colts' defense Saturday against New England. Across 13 games this season, Okereke has recorded 107 tackles, three passes defended, one sack and one interception.

  • Absent from practice Tuesday

    Okereke (illness) did not participate at Tuesday's practice.

    Analysis: The middle linebacker popped up on the injury report Tuesday, missing practice with a non-COVID illness. With the Colts' next game coming Saturday versus the Patriots, Okereke's participation in the coming days is worth monitoring. If he can't go in Week 15, E.J. Speed and Matthew Adams would likely step into larger roles at linebacker.

  • Piles up eight stops

    Okereke notched eight tackles (six solo) during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Okereke has now posted five consecutive games with at least seven tackles, and he's only had one game with fewer than five stops all season. Coming up Week 13, the every-down linebacker will look to contain a Texans team that's proven severely inconsistent on offense.

    Analysis: Okereke recorded his second game of the season with double-digit stops, though he didn't manage any other IDP-relevant stats. The 25-year-old remains an every-down player in Indianapolis' linebacker corps.

  • Racks up 14 tackles

    Okereke recorded 14 tackles (nine solo) during Sunday's 31-3 win over the Texans.

  • Gets start at MLB

    Okereke started at middle linebacker and had seven total tackles in Sunday's loss to Seattle.

    Analysis: Okereke won the starting middle-linebacker role during the preseason after the departure of Anthony Walker in free agency, but he wasn't impressive in the regular-season opener.

  • Holding lead on MLB role

    Okereke appears to have a strong hold on the starting middle linebacker role early in training camp, Kevin Bowen of 107.5 FM Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Okereke looked set to be the starting middle linebacker this season with the departure of Anthony Walker in free agency, and early camp reports have confirmed this move. Zaire Franklin and E.J. Speed will compete for the strong-side linebacker role when Darius Leonard is able to return from an ankle injury.

  • Moves to middle linebacker

    Okereke looks set to be the starting middle linebacker this season with the departure of Anthony Walker in free agency, Stepheh Holder of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Zaire Franklin will move from middle linebacker to strong-side linebacker as a result, though the strong-side role could be an open competition in training camp. Okereke had 72 total tackles and an interception mostly playing the weak-side role last season, so the move could boost his fantasy value.

  • Active for Sunday's game

    Okereke (ankle) is active for Sunday's game versus the Raiders.

  • Questionable to play Sunday

    Okereke (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders, George Bremer of The Anderson Herald Bulletin reports.

    Analysis: Okereke is coming off back-to-back absences due to a lingering ankle injury, but it looks like he has a fair shot to return versus Las Vegas. If cleared to play, Okereke stands to resume handling a starting role in Indianapolis' linebacker corps.

  • Missing another game

    Coach Frank Reich said Friday that Okereke (ankle) won't suit up for Sunday's game against the Texans, Kevin Bowen of 1070 The Fan Indianapolis reports.

    Analysis: Okereke will miss a second consecutive game with this injury. Zaire Franklin absorbed most of the snaps vacated by Okereke's absence last week and should continue to play a larger role in Houston.

  • Ruled out for clash with Titans

    Analysis: Okereke had appeared in every game this season but will be sidelined for the key divisional clash. He had been unable to participate in practice at all to this point in the week. Okereke's absence will push E.J. Speed into a bigger role among the Colts' linebacker corps.

    Okereke was a full participant for the Colts' practice session Thursday.

    Analysis: The 24-year-old linebacker underwent surgery on his thumb earlier this week but has been able to make a prompt return to practice, albeit with a club-like cast on his left hand. Okereke has logged three starts this season, playing at least 80 percent of the defensive snaps in Weeks 2, 3 and 4. Barring a setback, it appears he will be available Sunday for a matchup against Cleveland's top-ranked rushing attack.

  • Records first sack

    Okereke had three tackles (two sol) a sack and a forced fumble in Sunday's 31-17 loss to Tennessee.

    Analysis: Okereke played only 29 defensive snaps but made the most of his opportunities to secure his first career sack. The 23-year-old has minimal IDP value as a rotational linebacker, but he still has three-plus tackles in six straight games despite the limited role.
