Julian Okwara reacts to brother Romeo’s free agency contract: ‘Let’s take over’

Julian Okwara is entering his second year in the NFL, and thanks to the Detroit Lions, he’ll have his brother right there alongside him to help. On Monday afternoon, word leaked that the Lions will re-sign Romeo Okwara to a three-year deal worth up to $39 million.

Naturally, Julian was thrilled for his brother, not only because his family that just made a huge professional accomplishment, but because the two will be working alongside each other in 2021 and hopefully beyond.

“From undrafted to one of the best DE’s in the league,” Julian tweeted on Monday afternoon.
