Time off didn’t interest Romeo Okwara. Neither did strictly football-related training. The second-year defensive end got a taste of NFL success his rookie year and didn’t want it to be fleeting.

So the open-minded Okwara, a photographer in his spare time who also can play three instruments, thought outside the box. He spent his downtime in Las Vegas training with a former Navy SEAL.

“I’m always open to try to experience new things,” Okwara said Friday after Giants practice.
