Fantasy Impact:

A year after tearing his Achilles, the former first-rounder Okudah appears to be Detroit's starter opposite of CB Amari Oruwariye. This is big news for both the Lions and Okudah as Achilles' tears are notoriously difficult to return from in sports. The Lions' DST is going on average as the DST27 and isn't worth investing in for fantasy, but this helps bolster an ascending, gritty defense.
