The most recent former Giant to bring his skills to the Eagles is Ojulari. His acquisition follows Saquon Barkley, the former great running back from New York, who joined Philadelphia before to the previous campaign.
Barkley’s signing directly coincided with the Eagles winning the Super Bowl. Ojulari will now be expected to bring dynamism to their pass rush.
Outside of his rookie season, the four-year veteran was always teetering on being a full-time starter for the Giants. Nevertheless, he was an impact player who elevated them in the trenches.
The Giants will have to replace his 28 total tackles — seven for loss — and 10 quarterback hits from last year. He’ll take his 56.4 player grade from Pro Football Focus for the 2024 campaign to Philadelphia. New York still has a solid edge rusher group stars Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and newly-signed rotational rusher Chauncey Golston.
The 24-year-old figures to bolster an Eagles run defense that allowed opponents to rush for first downs 26 percent of the time, which was ninth-highest in the NFL last time out.
