Dallas Cowboys<\/a>\u00a0rookie Donovan Ezeiruaku went viral over the weekend after a photo of his astonishing wingspan left fans stunned.<\/p>\n

The 22-year-old pass rusher, who was selected by Dallas with the 44th overall pick in this year’s NFL Draft, garnered attention during the Cowboys’ 30-27 defeat to the Carolina Panthers<\/a> on Sunday night.<\/p>\n

Early on in the game, one fan shared an image on X of Ezeiruaku on the field at\u00a0Bank of America Stadium – and pointed out how long his arms are.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The user said: ‘Donovan Ezeiruaku\u2019s arms look like they don\u2019t belong on his body lol’.<\/p>\n

And it didn’t take long for other fans to echo that sentiment as the picture caused a stir online.\u00a0<\/p>\n

‘Man looks like he could sack a QB from the sideline. those arms are unreal,’ wrote another.<\/p>\n

\"Dallas <\/p>\n

Dallas Cowboys rookie Donovan Ezeiruaku went viral on Sunday for his astonishing wingspan<\/p>\n

‘Bro is standing straight up with his fingertips by his knee caps,’ a third user joked.<\/p>\n

A fourth quipped: ‘Arms like the kraken’.<\/p>\n

While one fan argued: ‘That\u2019s why they drafted the mfer goddamn’.<\/p>\n

Ezeiruaku recorded just one tackle and no sacks in the game as the Cowboys slumped to its third defeat of the season in Carolina.<\/p>\n

Since being drafted, the former Boston College star has made six appearances for Dallas, making 12 tackles. He is yet to register a sack in the NFL.<\/p>\n

During his college days Ezeiruaku put up 29 sacks and 107 tackles in 46 games.<\/p>\n

Prior to Sunday’s loss to the Panthers, he said about the wait for his first NFL sack: ‘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.<\/p>\n

‘I know myself, my family, this team, we all waiting. I’m just going to keep working at it.’<\/p>\n
