Jeff Okudah Is Top PFF-Graded Detroit Lion Week 7

Lions' Week 7 PFF grades have been revealed.
In this story:

Detroit Lions cornerback Jeff Okudah had a stellar performance against the Dallas Cowboys in Week 7. 

The 23-year-old's play of late has garnered increased support among the fanbase, as he has worked his way back to play at a high level in 2022, after suffering a torn Achilles early in 2021.  

Okudah recorded 15 tackles on the road against Dallas, including 12 solo tackles. 

His stellar performance was reflected in his 86.1 PFF grade, including a 90.1 run defense grade. 

The third-year cornerback was the highest-graded Lion this week, followed by defensive lineman Aidan Hutchinson.

Here are Pro Football Focus’ best and worst Lions grades, based on their performance in Sunday’s game.
