Lions fans sent the love to Amani Oruwariye, and the cornerback felt it and appreciated the well-wishes.
Oruwariye’s 2021 season came to an end on Christmas day when the Lions placed the third-year cornerback on injured reserve with a thumb injury. Fans immediately took to social media to wish Oruwariye a speedy recovery and thank him for a very good season. His six interceptions is good for third in the NFL and Oruwariye has been a beacon of reliability in coverage in a sea of constantly changing personnel around the secondary.
True to his good nature, Oruwariye posted a message on Twitter thanking the fans. “Appreciate all the love this year.. Merry Christmas”, Oruwariye posted.
All is well.. Thankful it’s nothing too serious 🙏🏾 Can’t wait to get back out there with my guys! Appreciate all the love this year.. Merry Christmas! #OnePride https://t.co/7IAZDwcCNW
