Below is an update in the Greatest Player by Number series. This focuses on numbers 71 through 75. This gives us a real treat, as we are reminded of the glory days of Phil Pozderac and Danny Noonan. Not to leave out a few others.
#71
Cory Proctor wore #71 from 2007 to 2009. The number then went to Alex Barron, whose holding penalty in the opening game of the 2010 season cost the Cowboys a win over Washington.
#72
Stephen Bowen wore #72 through the 2010 season. He was no Too Tall Jones.
#73
No player has worn #73 in a regular season game since Larry Allen left after the 2005 season.
#74
The only player assured of 100% of the votes was Bob Lilly, who is the only player to ever wear #74. Some players have worn it during preseason, but whoever has it won’t keep it.
#75
Marc Columbo wore #75 during this time in Dallas, which ended in 2010. Derrick Dockery wore it in 2011.
Here is the complete list:
