  • Odighizuwa faces increased competition for snaps at defensive tackle in 2024. The 2021 third-round pick has emerged as a reliable 3-technique at defensive tackle for the Cowboys, and Odighizuwa recorded a career-high 46 tackles over 17 regular-season games last season with 3.0 sacks. Last year's first-round pick Mazi Smith is expected to take a step forward in his development though, and Dallas added veteran Jordan Phillips to the DT mix during training camp, with free agent Linval Joseph also expected to sign in the coming days. That gives new defensive coordinator Mike Zimmer plenty of options in the middle of the defensive line, but it also makes it unlikely that Odighizuwa will see the career-high 601 snaps he got in 2023.

  • Cowboys' Osa Odighizuwa: Full go Friday
    By RotoWire

    Odighizuwa (hamstring) was a full participant in Friday's practice, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. The 25-year-old logged limited practices both Wednesday and Thursday, but he was able to record a full session Friday and now has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's contest. Odighizuwa has appeared in eight games for Dallas this season, recording 27 total tackles, including five tackles for loss and three sacks.

  • Odighizuwa (hamstring) was a limited participant at practice Thursday, Jon Machota of The Athletic reports. It's not clear at this point when Odighizuwa picked up the hamstring issue nor how severe it might be. Either way, if he can't practice in full Friday, he'll be in danger of missing his first game this season.

  • Odighizuwa (knee) is active for Thursday's game against the Giants, Todd Archer of ESPN.com reports. Odighizuwa was listed as a limited participant on the Cowboys' practice reports all week, but he's been cleared to play through his knee injury in Week 12. Over two games since the Week 9 bye, he's racked up three tackles (two solo).

  • Odighizuwa (knee) was listed as a limited participant on the Cowboys' injury report Monday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Odighizuwa recorded one tackle while logging a season-low 18 defensive snaps during Sunday's 40-3 win over the Vikings. However, he appears to have come away from this game with a knee injury, though the exact nature and severity of this issue are still unknown. Odighizuwa has recorded 39 tackles and two sacks over 10 games this season, and he'll have two more practices to increase his activity before Dallas' matchup against the Giants on Thanksgiving Day. Otherwise, Carlos Watkins and Neville Gallimore could stand to see increased roles, as Johnathan Hankins (illness) did not participate in Monday's practice.
