RIP Lee Roy Jordan.

14 years of setting the gold standard for linebacker play on the original Doomsday Defense.

One of my heroes. A tough hard nosed player. A bit undersized but that did not stop him. He was a great Cowboy. Sad every time one of the original doomsday guys passes. RIP number 55.

RIP one of the best to ever wear the Star

Sadly he was overlooked during that time period by most of the NFL
because he had the misfortune to play in the same age as so many great players like Butkus and Lanier and Nobis and so on. It was the age of the MLB.

Rest in paradise legend.

Before my time didn’t need to see him play to feel his legendary impact.

Well damn. That's a big loss. Another of my heroes I watched every week when I first became a Cowboys fan.

RIP Mr. Jordan. I really enjoyed watching you play. Thanks for being a part of what made The Cowboys America's Team. My team!

I became a Cowboys fan 3 years after he retired, but I've heard so much about him through the years. R.I.P. Mr. Jordan. A true Cowboys legend.

Quick story: On the first day of practice when Lee Roy was a freshman at Alabama, coach Bryant lined up all the players on one goal line and put 7 footballs on the other. Wanting to find out who the toughest players on the team were, he told them when I blow the whistle go bring me back a football. Lee Roy brought back 4.

RIP Mr. Jordan

RIP Mr Jordan.

Lee Roy as a LB is what you would call a “Dog” today. He was undersized but was physical and loved extracurricular activities on the field if you know what I mean.
