Oluokon tackles record
editOn the page, it claims in two places (side bar and career stats) that he has the record for combined tackles in a season.
However, in the write-up about his 2021 season, it claims he had the 7th most of all time.
It appears that different sources show different lists, because the NFL did not officially track tackles as a stat until 2001, and did not track them at all until 1994.
FB Ref: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/leaders/tackles_combined_single_season.htm (shows him at #7)
Statmuse: https://www.statmuse.com/nfl/ask/the-most-combined-tackles-in-one-nfl-season-by-one-player (shows him at #1)
There should be consistency on the page one way or another.
The NFL records page shows Nickerson at #1: List of National Football League records (individual) citing the FB ref site. Evanoesterle (talk) 04:44, 27 July 2023 (UTC)
