Donovan Ezeiruaku Aims for Increased Sacks in Upcoming Season

Donovan Ezeiruaku, an outside linebacker for the Cowboys, is looking to increase his sack total after finishing his rookie season with only two sacks. In 2025, he ranked in the top five among rookies in pressures, win rate, hits, and hurries, according to Pro Football Focus.

The Cowboys drafted Ezeiruaku in the second round after he led the nation with 16.5 sacks during his final season at Boston College. He expressed disappointment with his performance last season, emphasizing his commitment to contributing more effectively to the team.

After undergoing offseason surgery for a hip injury that affected his play, Ezeiruaku is now fully healthy and prepared to make a greater impact in the upcoming season.
