Bob Lilly
He is an 11 time Pro Bowl selection; He helped lead the Super Bowl VI winning Cowboys; He is inducted in both the College and Pro Football Hall of Fame
Lilly's football journey began at Texas Christian University (TCU), where he played for the TCU Horned Frogs. His outstanding college career earned him All-American honors, and he was selected by the Dallas Cowboys in the first round of the 1961 NFL Draft. Lilly quickly made an impact in the NFL, becoming the first player in Cowboys history to be named to the Pro Bowl, a feat he would achieve 11 times over his career. His leadership and consistent performance helped solidify the Cowboys' defense, and he was a key figure in the team's first Super Bowl victory in 1972.
One of Lilly's most memorable moments came in Super Bowl VI, where the Cowboys defeated the Miami Dolphins 24-3. Lilly's relentless pressure on Dolphins quarterback Bob Griese was a defining factor in the game, and his 29-yard sack of Griese remains one of the most iconic plays in Super Bowl history. Throughout his career, Lilly was known for his durability, missing only one game in 14 seasons. His contributions to the Cowboys' success earned him the nickname "Mr. Cowboy," a testament to his importance to the franchise.
Lilly's legacy extends beyond his playing days. He was inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 1980, becoming the first player in Cowboys history to receive the honor. A year later, he was also inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame, further cementing his status as one of the greatest defensive players in football history. His impact on the game and his contributions to the Cowboys' rise to prominence have made him a beloved figure in the world of professional football.
