Romeo Okwara has played 20 total games since entering the NFL. He’s only started in four games and amassed just a single sack in his time with the New York Giants.
Anthony Zettel, the man he’ll be replacing on the Detroit Lions roster after a surprise transaction this week, has Okwara beat in just about every statistical category. He’s played in 29 games—starting in 16 of them—has double the tackles, and 5.5 more sacks.
And while head coach Matt Patricia may not want to call it a one-for-one swap, that’s exactly what shows up on the Lions’ transaction list.
