Cowboys' Donovan Ezeiruaku: Leading tackler in loss
Rotowire
Ezeiruaku tallied 10 tackles (four solo), including 0.5 sacks, during Dallas' loss to the Giants on Sunday.
Ezeiruaku was one of the Cowboys' lone bright spots during the season opener, as he lead the team in tackles and split one of the two sacks of Jaxson Dart with Jonathan Bullard. Ezeiruaku recorded just 40 tackles (20 solo), including 2.0 sacks, across 17 games last season during his rookie campaign and is already well on pace to surpass those totals.

Cowboys' Donovan Ezeiruaku: Progressing in recovery
Rotowire
Ezeiruaku (hip) participated in some drills during the Cowboys' OTAs, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Per Archer, Ezeiruaku was not taking part in a team session, so there's evidently still some work to do before he's back to full strength. As long as he's healthy, he projects to play a major role on the edge in 2026 along with offseason trade acquisition Rashan Gary and rookie first-rounder Malachi Lawrence.
Cowboys' Donovan Ezeiruaku: Recovering from hip surgery
Rotowire
Ezeiruaku is five weeks removed from a hip procedure that will limit his participation in offseason activities, though he is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
Ezeiruaku suited up for all 17 regular-season games in his rookie year, totaling 40 tackles (20 solo), including 2.0 sacks, plus one forced fumble. He wasn't listed on any of Dallas' final injury reports, but it appears he managed that production while combating a hip issue. As long as he's ready for the start of training camp, Ezeiruaku's recovery shouldn't impede his ability to take a step forward in his development for Year 2.
