Okonkwo caught the most passes of any player during Tennessee's five open practices of OTAs and mandatory minicamp, and he already appears to have developed a rapport with rookie quarterback Cam Ward, Jim Wyatt of the team's official site reports.
Okonkwo was not targeted in Sunday's 23-14 loss to the Texans.
The raw but physical tight end has all the athletic tools for success, but he also has a lot to learn. His blocking and route-running abilities need work. He has the size and skill to make an impact after the reception, but his hands have to improve for those traits to come to the fore. He can be a menace in the open field, but getting the ball in his hands is not always easy.
Long Range Potential: Athletic tight end.
