Foye Oluokun is coming off a rookie season that was more impressive than you probably remember. Oluokun was a sixth round rookie out of Yale, but he didn’t just leapfrog second year vet and former third rounder Duke Riley fairly early in the season. He also managed to play the 10th-most snaps of any player on both defense and special teams, putting together an average Pro Football Focus grade that fails to capture some of the legitimately impressive work in coverage and on teams that Oluokun put on tape, especially late in the season.
For all those reasons and more, it’s natural to be excited about Foye Oluokun and what looks to be bright future with the Falcons.
