This picture of Lee Roy Jordan appeared in newspapers in 1965 as he was an up-and-coming young star for the Cowboys. In 1973 he was credited (unofficially since tackles weren't considered and recorded statistic) with 14 solo tackles against Philadelphia Eagles. Also that year, considered to be one of the great moments of Dallas Cowboy history, he intercepted Ken Anderson of the Cincinnati Bengals 3 times in the first quarter.
