Cowboys may have stumbled into a superstar as a second-round pick angles toward starting
The Dallas Cowboys needed help at defensive end for the 2025 season. Facing the loss of long-time starter and multiple-time Pro Bowler DeMarcus Lawrence, the team needed reinforcements. The club had drafted the position, highly, but had yet to reap any dominating rewards. So when the opportunity presented itself to secure themselves the potential steal of the 2025 draft, they jumped on it Dallas secured the services of perhaps the best pass-rushing defensive end of the draft when they drafted Boston College's Donovan Ezeiruaku. But pre-draft accolades don't matter if it doesn't manifest itself on a pro field, and while training camp isn't the real thing, what Ezeiruaku has shown in Oxnard has a lot of people extremely excited. Rundown Position: Defensive End Age: 21 Height: 6-foot-2 Weight: 248 pounds Hometown: Williamstown, NJ High School: Williamstown College: Boston College (Highlights) Draft: 2025 Second Round (No. 44 overall) Acquired: 2025 draft Contract: Four-year contract (2025), $10.2 million 2025 Base Salary: $840,000, $1.85 million cap hit Profile With Micah Parsons not participating in practice due to his contract dispute, Ezeiruaku has been declaring himself as a true force to reckon with. Lining up primarily as a left defensive end, Ezeiruaku has shown a complex rush attack that is far beyond his years. He's also displayed the ability to set the edge, looking like he's ready to take on a starting role sooner rather than later. Dallas brought back Dante Fowler, who left for a season in Washington, and the expectation was that he'd be starting opposite Parsons, but that may not be the case and if it is may not be for long. The Cowboys also signed Payton Turner, a former first-round pick like Fowler, as veteran depth. They join last year's second rounder Marshawn Kneeland as Parsons' supporting cast. That's before mentioning 2022 second-round pick Sam Williams, who is looking to return from an ACL injury. Together, the Cowboys have assembled a tremendously pedigreed group at defensive end, but Ezeiruaku looks like a potential breakout star amongst the room.

NFLPA elects David White to serve as interim executive director after Lloyd Howell's resignation
The NFLPA has finally elected an interim replacement for Lloyd Howell. The union announced late on Sunday night that it had elected David White to serve as the new interim executive director. White will replace Howell, who resigned last month amid a scandal that rocked the union. White was a finalist for the role in 2023. He is the former national executive director and chief negotiator of the Screen Actors Guild. He's also the CEO of 3CG, and is the board chair of the Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco. 'I am grateful to the NFLPA's player leadership for entrusting me with the privilege and responsibility to guide their union as interim executive director,' White said in a statement. 'It's a duty I do not take lightly, and I'm committed to re-establishing trust and ensuring the union is serving its members best. 'I look forward to working with the entire NFLPA team to prospect players' health and safety, secure their financial well-being and further strengthen their voice to shape their futures.' This post will be updated with more information shortly.

Messi suffered ‘minor muscle injury' in right leg. Here is latest update
Lionel Messi sustained 'a minor muscle injury in his right leg' during Inter Miami's Leagues Cup penalty shootout win over Necaxa on Saturday, according to a club statement on Sunday night. He underwent medical exams to determine the extent of the injury and the timetable for his return is undetermined. 'His medical clearance will depend on his clinical progress and response to treatment,' said the press release. Messi fell to the ground and clutched his leg after being challenged by defenders Raul Sanchez and Alexi Pena at the 11-minute mark of the game. He stumbled, got up, tried to walk it off, but then sat down and sought medical attention. Messi was clearly dejected as he removed his captain's armband and headed to the tunnel. The 38-year-old Argentine star had been on a hot streak of late with a brace in six of seven matches. He scored 18 goals and had nine assists in 18 MLS games and played 90-plus minutes in 20 matches in a row, including four in the Club World Cup. He had two assists in Miami's 2-1 Leagues Cup opening win against Atlas last week and was named MLS Player of the Month. 'Obviously, we feel it when he is not on the field, he's the best player in the world,' said goalkeeper Rocco Rios Novo, who made a big save in the penalty shootout. 'We want to have him playing. But these are things that can happen to anyone. We have to carry on without him. No excuses.' Midfielder Fede Redondo added: 'He's our captain, our leader, and we hope he recovers as soon as possible.' Miami will face Mexican club Pumas on Wednesday at Chase Stadium in the third and final group stage match. The top four MLS teams and top four Liga MX teams advance to the quarterfinals. As of Sunday night, with 15 of 18 MLS teams having played two games, Miami sat in second place in the MLS side of the bracket with five points (one regulation win for three points, one penalty shootout win for two points). The Portland Timbers, led by former Inter Miami coach Phil Neville, were in first place with six points. Minnesota and Columbus were third and fourth with four points each.
