Carolina Panthers defensive end Efe Obada’s incredible week continues.
Obada was named the NFC’s defensive player of the week on Wednesday morning for his performance against the Cincinnati Bengals on Sunday.
In just 19 defensive snaps, Obada recorded a sack, an interception and two quarterback hits. He was one of two recipients of a game ball, awarded by head coach Ron Rivera after the 31-21 Panthers victory..
A product of the NFL’s International Player Pathway program as a Nigerian-born citizen of London, Sunday was Obada’s first time on the active roster.
