Nice concept. Really enjoyed this one.
I thought it's footwork because it has eight letters. Nice teaser, really hard!
Great Teaser, thought it was Freight cuz it was the only one without the second-letter being a vowel.

So did I. The clue was no help, either

JQPublic, how is footwork having eight letters different from the rest? You think it's the only one with eight letters?
Same, demonlord8 and plain_jane. It could be an alternate anser?
An Odd One Out that has something as trivial as 'second letter not vowel' should not be included, in my opinion, in Braingle. Brainglers have sometimes criticised them by saying '***' is the only word with T as its fifth letter. Big Deal.
Many of this genre can be solved in several ways, but that sometimes adds to their fun - IF the alternative is clever.
Just my thoughts ...

So fun and clever
Very good! I got it relatively quickly, but I think the eight in freights just stood out to me for some reason, so I started looking for that. Great job!
