2025 Fantasy Outlook
A second-round pick out of Boston College in 2025, Ezeiruaku's smaller frame could cause problems for him in the NFL against the run, but his long arms and athleticism allow him to fend off blockers, and he already has a strong array of pass-rush moves. The Cowboys offer a perfect landing spot for the 21-year-old, as offenses won't be able to focus on Ezeiruaku while Micah Parsons is rampaging into the backfield. Ezeiruaku will get a chance to develop behind veteran Dante Fowler. Read Past Outlooks

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Taking advantage of more reps
Ezeiruaku has been one of the best players on the field for the Cowboys in training camp, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Micah Parsons has been sidelined for the first practices of training camp due to a back issue, which has opened the door for Ezeiruaku to get more reps with the first-team defense. Ezeiruaku has made the most of his opportunity and has been one of the standouts in practice, with head coach Brian Schottenheimer heavily praising the rookie second-round pick after Thursday's practice. A strong training camp would give Ezeiruaku a chance to supplant veteran Dante Fowler for the second starting defensive end job opposite Parsons.
