TikTok personality Peighton Tubre named Dallas Cowboys defensive end Osa Odighizuwa as one of her breakout players for the 2023 NFL season.

She said in one of her recent videos:

“A little background on Osa, he’s only 24 years old. In his second year, Osa had five sacks, seven quarterback hits, and 38 total pressures…This guy has some serious upside.”

The former UCLA standout has improved his numbers from 2021 to 2022. He had 36 total tackles (six for losses) and 11 quarterback hits in his rookie season.

A year later, he had 43 tackles (eight for losses) while lessening his missed tackles from seven to one. Odighizuwa started all 17 regular season games for the Cowboys last season.

Tubre revealed what could be Odighizuwa’s secret to playing better:

“Before being drafted by the Cowboys, he was the top-ranked high school heavyweight wrestler in the nation. And it shows in his highlights. The use of his hands, footwork, his sense of balance.”

Odighizuwa had a 91-match winning streak in his last two years of high school wrestling.

Meanwhile, Tubre continued by citing an excellent play Osa did against Tom Brady and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers:

“Notice how in this play, he recognizes that this is a run. He slants to the right, he dips the shoulder, and then he just blows this play up. The use of his hands goes so underappreciated. Also, can we just talk about how low he gets.”

Odighizuwa, Trevon Diggs, Micah Parsons, and DeMarcus Lawrence were all part of the defense that ranked fifth in points allowed (20.1) per game last season.
