Linebacker
Ogbo Okoronkwo
No. 45 · 9th season
Okoronkwo's still in the room, still asking for a chance
A workout is not a contract. It is not a promise. It is just a player showing up and making his case one more time.
Ogbo Okoronkwo has been making that case for a while now. He came through Cleveland across two seasons, then landed in Philadelphia last year. Now he is a free agent, and on Tuesday he was at the San Francisco 49ers facility, running routes and rushing drills for coaches who have not yet committed to anything.
That is the life of a veteran edge rusher without a home. You go where the phone rings. You work out clean and you leave your number.
Whether San Francisco calls is still an open question. What is not is that Okoronkwo keeps showing up.
