Is Chuks Okorafor ‘all in' on playing left tackle for Patriots? originally appeared on NBC Sports Boston
The New England Patriots enter the 2024 NFL season with serious worries about their offensive line. The left tackle spot is chief among those concerns.
Offseason addition Chukwuma Okorafor is slated to protect quarterback Jacoby Brissett's blindside to start the new campaign. It's a new role for the 27-year-old lineman, who spent his six seasons with the Pittsburgh Steelers on the right side.
While Okorafor has accepted the challenge of transitioning to left tackle, he acknowledged in a conversation with NBC Sports Boston's Kayla Burton that it has been a difficult adjustment.
