L.P. has been snapping for Years and Most casual fans don't even know his name. At 36 he's going strong. It's a forgotten craft but, when it goes wrong it's front and center. I'm glad and grateful this is the least talked about Cowboy.


Side Note: The Cowboys had Jon Condo on the team in the 2005 off-season. He has been the Raiders long snapper since 2006 and made the Pro Bowl in 2009 and 2011.

you have to be right cause every team does it but...if I was getting 8-10 million a season as a center and was expected to be able to long snap I'd spend 10 hours a day if needed to perfect it.
I actually played center for 1 year way back as a little kid and yes it was different (you're looking down between your legs instead of straight ahead) and have to zip it like you say but like riding a bike when u got it down it wasnt that hard. Then again I wasnt doing in the NFL

I just know there are guys who have not been good at it and it can cost you big time when they mess up. As great as Frederick is at Center I like knowing that our long snaps are being handled Ladouceur

it always makes me sad when I have to let him go in my Madden franchise. With no dedicated LS position, he is something like a 58 rated TE.

LP was a pass rushing DE in high school and junior college. Then mainly long snapped in college. With our luck at DE this guy might be worth some snaps? :)

I'm going to train my son to be a long snapper.

Lol I always told my son he could be a kicker if we started early. There are only a couple of positions on the football field where the guys dont necessarily have to have off the charts athletic ability. No offense to Dan Bailey, it goes without saying hes more than a mortal kicker.

Great at his job.
Incredibly sweet deal for him.
snaps the ball (perfectly) a few times a game and has made millions.

I would hope most of us know his name. I'm not sure many of us would recognize him in a crowd, though. ... Maybe now that we've seen this picture.

He could tell me he's a Cowboys, even show his ID......I still wouldn't believe him.
