Position: Defensive Tackle, #98 Weight/Height: 290 lbs, 6'4" Birthday: 11/22/89 Alma Mater: Boise StateWith their second selection of the 2012 NFL Draft, the Dallas Cowboys addressed the defensive line with a raw and gifted athlete in Tyrone Crawford in the third round (81st overall). Crawford worked into the mix on the defensive line as a rookie, playing in all 16 games and posted 33 tackles and five pressures. He worked through the offseason to compete for a starting spot in 2013 but a torn Achilles tendon suffered in training camp ended his season before it started. He spent 2013 rehabbing the injury and returned in full health for 2014, starting the season as one of the team's defensive ends before moving inside and starting 12 regular season games and both playoff contests at tackle. With a full year as a starter under his belt, Crawford manned one of the inside spots in 2015 and started all 16 games for the first time in his career, finishing third on the team with 5.0 sacks. Crawford finished 2016 with 4.5 sacks and six stops for losses, playing both inside and outside spots. He signed a five-year contract extension at the beginning of 2015 and is in prime position to be a dominant force on Dallas' defensive front for years to come. Show less «
