FRISCO, Texas – Five games into his rookie season, Cowboys defensive end Donovan Ezeiruaku has yet to record his first NFL sack.
While it can be irritating for some to wait this long, the second-round pick isn't sweating it too much because he knows the moment is on the way.
"It's not that it's frustrating, because I know it's coming and when it comes, it'll come in waves. And a big wave at that," Ezeiruaku said. "I know myself, my family, this team, we all waiting. I'm just going to keep working at it."
It's not for lack of effort or getting to the backfield, either. Ezeiruaku currently sits at fourth on the team in pressures with 10 and second in QB hits with five, to go along with 11 tackles and a tackle for loss. In order for that wave to hit, he knows he'll need to step things up.
