Most underrated Dallas Cowboys DL Osa Odighizuw

When you're talking Yuta Watanabe Jersey about the Dallas Cowboys and their pa s rush, the conversation begins and ends with Micah Parsons for some. Which is understandable to a point, given Parsons' ridiculous athletic gifts and production. But there's a lot more going on in those defensive fronts, formerly run by ex-defensive coordinator (and current Washington Commanders head coach) Dan Quinn, and now in the hands of new defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer.Demarcus Lawrence has been a force for a long time. Rookie second-round pick Marshawn Kneeland has the potential to be a multi-gap disruptor. The team is hoping for more from second-year defensive tackle Mazi Smith. And Sam Williams has shown something as a rotational edge-rusher.But if there's one guy who holds that line together, it's probablyOsa Odighizuwa, the 2021 third-round pick out of UCLA. Last season,Odighizuwa totaled three sacks, 10 quarterback hits, 31 quarterback hurries, and nine tackles for lo s. He was a relative wrecking machine all over that defensive line, playing mostly at the tackle positions, but he also lined up on the edge for 16% of his snaps, and at nose tackle 3% of the time.At 6'2' and 280 pounds,Odighizuwa has the strength to bull blockers back, but he really excels at moving through gaps as a running back would -- by getting skinny through double-teams, and timing his gap-shooting reps perfectly to attack the backfield.If you want to know what "getting skinny through gaps" means, Osa Odighizuwa of the is here to show you what's up.

Doug Farrar (@NFL_DougFarrar) It will be interesting to see howOdighizuwa performs in Zimmer's fronts, which will likely rely le s on the stunts and games that are a hallmark of Quinn's concepts, but one thing's for sure -- the Cowboys' defense isn't the same without him in there.
