Technically they play different positions. One is the undertackle (Okoye) and one is the nose tackle (Okam). Travis Johnson played mainly the NT last season, but he can play both positions.

IIRC the team is going to try Okam at the undertackle at times with TJ at NT, but that is only if Okam keeps proving to be athletic.

yea i know, it's a different objective from the same position. either draw a double team and stuff up the run or try to collapse the pocket and while it seems like a balanced attack to have both objectives trying to be accomplished together it's not necessary at all.

btw, up close travis johnson is one big dude. like...thick from head to toe. 6' 3'' 305 doesn't describe him at all.
