Former UCLA DTs vital to Cowboys' 2025 success

New defensive coordinator, same old problem.

Year in and year out, it seems as if the interior of the Dallas Cowboys defensive line is the one position we can point to as a weak link on the roster. The 2025 season offers up the same challenge, making Matt Eberflus' job that much more difficult as Dallas' new DC.

Outside of re-signing Osa Odighizuwa to once again hold down the starting job at the ever important 3-technique position in Eberflus' 4-3 scheme, the Cowboys did not spend big to add to the position. Odighizuwa is one of the better 3-techniques in the league and a perfect fit in Eberflus' scheme.
