When Erik Ezukanma was selected by the Miami Dolphins in the fourth round of the 2022 NFL Draft, many people were left scratching their heads. After all, Miami already had a loaded wide-receiver room after signing Cedrick Wilson, trading for Tyreek Hill and drafting Jaylen Waddle in 2021. However, if Saturday’s performance from the man nicknamed “Eazy-E” is any indication of his future success with Miami, the Dolphins got themselves a hell of a steal this offseason.
Against the Raiders, Ezukanma nabbed six balls for 114 yards, including a spectacular one-handed reception for 34 yards on a pass that was under-thrown from Skylar Thompson.
