Former Texas defensive tackle got his first action of the season this Sunday against the Titans. He only logged one tackle but he played well and held up pretty well in the middle of the Texans’ defensive line. Houston sports radio personality Lance Zierlein had the following to say on Okam:

I was relatively happy with the play of NT Frank Okam. He held up at the point of attack better than Travis Johnson has this season and I expect him to start getting more snaps as the season progresses.

As we’ve always said with Frank it’s all about motor and effort. Hopefully a taste of success will motivate him and he can continue to get more and more playing time. After an 0-2 start, the Texans could certainly use him.
