Cowboys' Donovan Ezeiruaku faces discipline issues during training camp
Summary

Donovan Ezeiruaku, a second-year edge rusher for the Dallas Cowboys, was ejected from practice for the second time in two weeks during a joint session with the New Orleans Saints.

Cowboys head coach Brian Schottenheimer plans to address Ezeiruaku's behavior, which has raised concerns about his decision-making both on and off the field.
