Indianapolis Colts linebacker Bobby Okereke will be stepping into a full-time starting role as the MIKE linebacker next to All-Pro Darius Leonard.
Apparently, that gig includes being on the receiving end of a truck stick from Tennessee Titans running back Derrick Henry, which is what happened in a clip from the “Madden 22” trailer.
Why they gotta do my man like that? Okereke, a Stanford product, is smart enough to know you don’t go that high on Henry when going to make a tackle. I know, I know, it’s a trailer and they were just trying to emulate the ridiculous stiff-arm Henry put on Josh Norman.
But as the only Colts player to be featured in the trailer, we have to get fired up about something right? It is the middle of June after all.
On a side note, imagine if that was Darius Leonard getting stiff-armed by Henry. The world would never hear the end of it.
