Giants' Bobby Okereke Returns Healthy, Prepares to Lead Defense Bounceback

News summary

Bobby Okereke is focused on continuity and improvement in his second year under Giants defensive coordinator Shane Bowen after a challenging 2024 season marred by a back disc injury and adapting to a new defensive system. Despite missing the final games due to surgery, Okereke has returned healthy and is optimistic about building a better rapport with Bowen to regain the form he showed in 2023 under former coordinator Wink Martindale. He emphasized that developing a strong mental connection with Bowen will allow him to play more instinctively and lead the Giants defense effectively. The Giants have bolstered their defense with key additions such as Paulson Adebo, Jevon Holland, Chauncey Golston, and first-round draft pick Abdul Carter, which Okereke believes will help the unit improve overall. Okereke’s leadership as a captain has been welcomed by teammates, and he aims to return to being among the team’s top tacklers and defensive playmakers. His improved familiarity with Bowen’s system and the strengthened defense set expectations for a bounce-back season.
