RIP John Roach

Only three men have worn #12 for the Cowboys:

John Roach (QB 1964)

Ron Widby (P 68-71) also wore #10

Roger Staubach (QB 1969-79)

No one has worn #12 since Roger retired.

Also interesting the Cowboys had two SMU QB alums on the same team.
From reading the 24/7 article, John Roach had an accomplished and well-lived long life after the NFL.
