Houston plans to sign Okudah to a one-year, $4.75 million contract, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

After a short-lived stint with the Falcons, Okudah is now joining forces with the Texans. Over 13 games in 2023, he recorded 44 tackles (34 solo) and three passes defensed. He projects as a rotational option for Houston in 2024.

Okudah finished 2023 with 44 tackles (34 solo) and three pass defenses in 13 appearances.

EDGE Analysis

After back-to-back disappointing seasons to start his career, Okudah made an impact on the Lions' defense in 2022, totaling 73 tackles, one interception and one forced fumble. However, he was traded to Atlanta last offseason and carved out a starting role, posting 41 tackles from Weeks 4-13. However, he was ultimately replaced by Clark Phillips down the stretch. The Falcons declined the fifth-year team option for 2024 on Okudah's rookie deal, so the cornerback will be an unrestricted free agent this offseason.

Okudah (ankle) was a full participant during practice Wednesday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah logged a limited practice Friday before being ruled out for last Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. However, with Week 15 prep underway, the Ohio State product was a full go and should suit up for this Sunday's matchup with the Panthers.

Okudah (ankle) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah missed Thursday's practice, participated on a limited basis Friday and was listed as questionable going into Sunday. The starting right cornerback has 41 tackles and three passes defensed this season. Mike Hughes, Dee Alford and Clark Phillips could be in line to see more playing time in Okudah's absence.

Okudah (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah could be trending in the right direction to suit up Sunday, as he went from not participating in Thursday's practice to a limited session Friday. If the 2020 first-round pick is unable to play in Week 14, both Dee Alford and Clark Phillips would likely see increased work in Atlanta's secondary.

Okudah (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Amna Subhan of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah was limited during Wednesday's practice so this is a step in the wrong direction for the Ohio State product. With A.J. Terrell still in concussion protocols, the Falcons could potentially be missing both of their starting corners for Sunday's matchup with the Buccaneers. Okudah will work to get back on the field Friday to increase his chances of playing in the contest.

Okudah registered eight tackles (seven solo) in the Falcons' 24-15 win over the Saints on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah's eight tackles were good for the second most on the team and were also a new season high for the 24-year-old. The 2020 first-round pick now has 36 tackles (26 solo) on the season and will look to add to that against the Jets next week.

Okudah recorded six tackles (six solo) during Sunday's 21-19 win over the Texans.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah, who was traded to Atlanta by Detroit this offseason, missed the first two games of the season due to a foot injury. He was cleared to take the field in Week 3 versus his former team, but he played just 10 defensive snaps. Okudah's role has increased in each game since, and he played all 58 defensive snaps versus Houston on Sunday. Now that he's 100 percent, it's safe to assume Okudah will continue to operate as the starting cornerback opposite A.J. Terrell.

Okudah (foot) is active for Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Tori McElhaney of the Falcons' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah missed the first two games of the campaign due to a foot injury that popped up during training camp. He was a full participant at each practice of Week 3 prep, so it's not surprising to see him cleared, even though he was listed as questionable. Okudah will make his season debut against his former team, but his role may be limited as he works his way back to game speed.

Okudah (foot) is expected to play Sunday in Detroit as long as he doesn't experience any issues during pregame warmups, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

EDGE Analysis

Okudah injured his foot during practice in early August and missed the Falcons' first two games of the regular season. However, he was a full participant in practice this week and appears set to make his team debut despite carrying a questionable tag into Sunday. With Okudah's return, Tre Flowers will likely return to a reserve role.
