Azeez Ojulari joins Eagles, reunites with Georgia teammates

Azeez Ojulari has signed a one-year, $4 million contract with the Philadelphia Eagles after spending the first four seasons of his career with the New York Giants. At 24, the edge rusher hopes to revitalize his career following injury struggles and is excited to reunite with several former Georgia teammates, including Nolan Smith, Jalen Carter, and Jordan Davis, creating a strong sense of camaraderie. Ojulari expressed confidence in fitting into Vic Fangio's defensive scheme, previously noted for its effectiveness. He aims to prove his versatility and contribute significantly to the Eagles' pass rush, especially after the departures of Josh Sweat and Brandon Graham. Ojulari's strong connection to Philadelphia is personal as well, with family ties to the city enhancing his enthusiasm for the move. His eagerness to compete and learn will be pivotal as he seeks to carve out a prominent role on a championship-contending team.
