Cleveland Browns defensive end Emmanuel Ogbah is a Hard Hat Award Winner.
At a Browns’ presser with interim head coach Gregg Williams’ on Tuesday, a reporter made a comment that Ogbah’s numbers don’t exactly jump off the stat sheet.
Which, if we’re being fair, isn’t exactly true.
Ogbah’s 2018 stats say he has 32 combined tackles (three for loss), 3.0 sacks, six quarterback hits, seven passes defended and a forced fumble in 11 games.
Which are some decent ‘doing your defensive job’ numbers in the NFL.
But Williams, a good coach and father figure to his players, defends his player and points out that Ogbah lends some above-the-stats value to the team, as well.
