Notes: Lions CB Jeff Okudah running again 5 months after Achilles injury

Detroit Lions cornerback Jeff Okudah likely still has a long way to go in his recovery from an Achilles injury suffered back in early September, but he’s made one significant step in his rehabilitation.

On Tuesday, Okudah posted to his Instagram stories a video of himself running at a pretty serious pace over mini hurdles. The caption to the video read, “2/22/22, Day 159.” Clearly, Okudah is taking this rehabilitation seriously.

We haven’t heard from Okudah since he suffered his injury in Week 1 of the season, but several coaches and teammates provided scattered updates throughout the year.
