New Lions defensive coordinator Cory Undlin got a gleam in his eye during Wednesday’s Zoom session with reporters when he was asked about prized rookie CB, Jeff Okudah. There was no hiding his infatuation with the No. 3 overall pick.
“With this Zoom thing, I’ve spent a lot of time with Jeff and I think the people in Detroit and Lions fans are going to really, really like him, not only as a player, but as a person,” Undlin gushed.
He continued to praise his young cornerback, noting his driven personality and work ethic.
“Jeff is driven like few men I’ve been around in this profession and I know that and I can tell that albeit a Zoom call. The guy is nonstop. To the point where it’s like, ‘Jeff, can we talk about something, like can we not talk about football for like five minutes? Can we talk about something else? Do you do anything else?’ That’s how he’s wired.”
