"Following a standout career at Boston College, the Cowboys selected Ezeiruaku with the 44th selection in this past year's draft. He had a productive rookie campaign in Dallas, starting nine of his 17 appearances while tallying 40 tackles, nine tackles for loss, and a pair of sacks. He graded out 38th among 117 qualifying edge defenders on Pro Football Focus."
"Cowboys defensive end Donovan Ezeiruaku was arrested yesterday in Texas, according to Calvin Watkins of The Dallas Morning News. Ezeiruaku was jailed for a reckless driving charge. He was later released on a $500 bond. The Cowboys said they were aware of the arrest but offered no further comment, per Watkins. While Ezeiruaku already led Cowboys edge rushers in snaps in 2025, the team is set to be even more reliant on him in 2026."
Donovan Ezeiruaku was arrested in Texas on a reckless driving charge and was jailed before being released on a $500 bond. The Cowboys acknowledged the arrest but offered no further comment. Ezeiruaku was a second-round draft pick following a standout career at Boston College. He started nine of 17 games as a rookie, totaling 40 tackles, nine tackles for loss and two sacks. Pro Football Focus ranked him 38th among 117 qualifying edge defenders. Ezeiruaku led Cowboys edge rushers in snaps in 2025 and is expected to be more relied upon in 2026 as multiple edge players approach free agency. The NFL generally waits for legal processes to play out before opening personal-conduct investigations or issuing suspensions or fines.
