Breaking :Falcons Surprising Draft Strategy Leaves Ogundeji on the Sidelines…
But his production was inconsistent. Over 32 games, he accumulated 75 combined tackles, including 8 tackles for loss, but managed only 3 sacks and 3 quarterback hits. Ogundeji also recorded 1 pass defense and 1 fumble recovery across two seasons.
Contrary to analysts’ predictions, the Falcons did not prioritize their defensive line in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft. Instead, they bolstered their line with several selections in Days 2 and 3. With Ogundeji recovering from a season-long injury, he finds himself out of favor.
Nonetheless, Ogundeji could rejoin the Falcons if an injury creates a roster vacancy during the summer. At just 25 years old, he still shows potential and could be a valuable addition to the practice squad this fall.
