Donovan Ezeiruaku made it clear that his family can no longer represent the Eagles unless it is the Boston College variety, after being selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the second round of the 2025 NFL Draft.
Ezeiruaku grew up a Philadelphia Eagles fan, and his family is fond of the NFC East nemesis.
But now that he is playing in Dallas, Ezeiruaku is making sure his family leaves the dark side and comes to proudly represent America's Team.
