Quick answer
WatchOkonkwo caught 15 passes for 150 yards in 2026, ranking TE35 through 4 games. From TE22 to TE35 through 4 games is a dip in pace, not a locked finish. Don't pay for a bounce from the 2026 projection alone. Treat this as a watch, not a hold-forever — confirm the dip is real before adding more exposure.
