Omari Okeke brings rangy veteran safety play and special-teams value to Utah State
Okeke is a long, experienced defensive back who has shown he can contribute when healthy: Utah State lists him at 6-foot-2, 200 pounds, with 30 career tackles, 2.5 tackles for loss, and one pass breakup across 17 games and two starts. His best differentiators are versatility and range — reports describe him as a “long, rangy athlete” who can move between deep coverage and the slot, and his return from a 2023 shoulder injury adds context to his toughness and resilience. He fits a team that wants length, experience, and a safety who plays with confidence rather than just chasing box-score glory.
