‘Spoiled’ Chukwuma Okorafor Eager To Play Alongside James Daniels

Throughout his career, Chukwuma Okorafor has had some pretty talented linemen line up to his left. Over his first four years, he’s gotten to play next to David DeCastro, an All-Pro caliber player at the peak of his career, one that was unfortunately shortened by injuries. Trai Turner wasn’t on that same level last year, not the 2021 edition anyway, but was a steady and veteran presence to help a still young and learning Okorafor out.

Entering his fifth year, Okorafor will get to play next to James Daniels, the Steelers’ high-prized free agent coming over from Chicago, who signed a three-year deal with the team.
