Osa Odighizuwa: Getting Better Every Week Defensive tackle Osa Odighizuwa discusses his progress as a starter through the first three games of the season.
Harries Hurts in Monday's rout Odighizuwa recorded four tackles and 1.5 sacks in Monday's 41-21 win over the Eagles.
Impact Even with DeMarcus Lawrence (foot) on IR and Randy Gregory getting back up to game speed, the Cowboys still got plenty of pressure on Jalen Hurts, with Odighizuwa leading the way and picking up his first career NFL sack. The 2021 third-round pick had only three tackles through his first two games, but he's showing signs of developing into a disruptive presence in the middle of the Dallas defensive line.

Heads to Big D The Cowboys selected Odighizuwa in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft, 75th overall.
Impact The UCLA product blossomed as a redshirt junior in 2019 when he picked up 10.0 tackles for loss in 12 games. He continued to be disruptive in a shortened Pac-12 season in 2020 with four sacks in seven games to earn first-team all-conference honors. Odighizuwa lacks a prototypical frame at 6-foot-1 and 282 pounds, but he boasts long arms (34.0) that allow him to play bigger than those numbers. He will also be transitioning to a new role in Dallas' 4-3 after playing nose in UCLA's 3-4.
