FRISCO, Texas- The Pittsburgh Steelers have met with Charlotte EDGE Eyabi Okie-Anoma at the East-West Shrine Bowl, he told Steelers Depot.
Okie-Anoma, a former top-five recruit who also played at Alabama and Michigan in a college career that spanned five schools, had 5.5 sacks at Charlotte last season and registered 4.5 sacks at Michigan in 2022. He was one of the most impressive players at the first day of practice, winning two 1v1 reps handily against Illinois OT Julian Pearl and a bull rush against Oklahoma OT Walter Rouse. Okie-Anoma told Steelers Depot that they were told they were no longer allowed to bull rush in 1v1 reps after his win against Rouse.
