With T.J. Watt still on the sidelines nursing a hamstring injury, second-year outside linebacker Olasunkanmi Adeniyi got the opportunity to work with the starters yesterday after Anthony Chickillo also sat out for the Pittsburgh Steelers.

Chickillo returned today, but then Bud Dupree was sat out. Which mean more first-team reps for the former college free agent, who has been one of the top stories of training camp so far. And his veteran teammates, such as Stephon Tuitt, have noticed.

The sixth-year defensive lineman was asked about Adeniyi recently, with Teresa Varley quoting him as saying of him that “he has a lot of tenacity”. He added, “he has all of the things you want. He has built in leverage already. He can get around the edge. He is quick. He is fast. I think he is doing really well”.

Bud Dupree is on his way to being the highest paid backup OLB in the league

The Ola Adeniyi hype is incredibly legit. His burst and toolbox is really fun to watch. He’s the third best pass rusher on this team for sure, pushing for number two. Even against Feiler he pushed him back and threw him to the ground on one play. Bigger though is that he looked better in the coverage drill than I thought he would. He was a standout there. He’s taken it up a level this season.

From what I’ve heard, despite how much promise he’s shown... Olaqwerty got stalemated by the #1 O-line.

Well hopefully Olaqwerty is on the field more in preseason. I want to see more.
