2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Browns rewarded Okoronkwo with a three-year deal, including $12 million in guarantees following a breakout season in Houston. He recorded a career-high 44 tackles and five sacks -- both figures greater than the thee previous years combined with the Rams -- and will serve as a third-down rush specialist in Cleveland.

RANKS
Delivers in first year
Okoronkwo recorded 31 tackles, 4.5 sacks, one pass defensed and a fumble recovery over 14 regular-season games for the Browns in 2023.
ANALYSIS
Okoronkwo parlayed a strong 2022 season with the Texans into a three-year deal in Cleveland, and the 28-year-old edge rusher gave maximum effort when not sidelined by injury. He showed that grit in returning from a December pectoral injury that initially appeared to be of the season-ending variety. Okoronkwo maintained a spot in the rotation at defensive end along with Myles Garrett and Za'Darius Smith. It looks like the Browns hit in Year 1 of the deal, and Okoronkwo should remain part of the edge rotation in 2024.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2020
2018
After recording a respectable 17.5 tackles for a loss and eight sacks in his final season at Oklahoma, the Rams traded up to select Okoronkwo in the fifth round of the 2018, and he was expected to challenge for a starting job immediately. A foot injury prevented him from participating in training camp that fall, and he didn't suit up for a single game as a rookie. Last year, he only played 117 defensive snaps with the majority of his playing time coming on special teams (145 snaps). Now entering his third season with the organization, Okoronkwo faces an uphill battle for meaningful playing time, and his once promising future with the Rams is in definite question -- especially after the team signed free-agent Leonard Floyd and drafted Terrell Lewis to beef up the outside linebacker depth chart. Okoronkwo is off the fantasy radar until proven otherwise.
