Giants’ Brian Burns: Azeez Ojulari a ‘Very Gifted’ Pass Rusher.
If the Giants can stay healthy, Azeez Ojulari might be a hidden gem.
“He’s a great pass rusher. He’s very natural. He has natural ability. It comes very, very natural to him,” Burns told reporters on Sunday. “I think he’s very gifted. Just his build alone, he has extremely long arms and natural leverage, so that makes him a premium pass rusher as far as his build. He’s been doing great so far. I expect big things from him this year.”
Ojulari is heading into the last year of his rookie contract. When healthy, he’s been productive, with 16 sacks in 35 games.
However, Ojulari, who has missed 16 games due to injuries over three seasons, hasn’t quite lived up to expectations since the Giants picked him in the second round of the 2020 draft.
