Chukwuma Okorafor knows the Denver Broncos well. Two of his three starts have come against the Broncos, including his first in 2018. On paper, Sunday’s matchup was the easier of the two. Okorafor has experience on his side, now in his third year as opposed to being a rookie, and didn’t have to deal with the dangerous Von Miller, lost before the season began with an ankle injury. He played well, Ben Roethlisberger sacked only one and that wasn’t Okorafor’s fault.
Speaking to reporters Monday, Okorafor evaluated his performance. He said like Kevin Dotson, he thought he did better in pass protection than as a run blocker.
