Cowboys defense ready to make name for itself

ARLINGTON, Texas – With players like Tony Romo, Jason Witten, Dez Bryant, Ezekiel Elliott, Dak Prescott and offensive linemen Tyron Smith, Travis Frederick and Zack Martin, the Dallas Cowboys have been known recently for their offense.

Since Jason Garrett took over as the full-time head coach in 2011, the Cowboys have had 35 Pro Bowl appearances. Twenty-five have been on offense, and two were on special teams.

The defense has been represented in the all-star game by Jay Ratliff, DeMarcus Ware, Anthony Spencer, Jason Hatcher, Sean Lee and DeMarcus Lawrence, who earned his first Pro Bowl trip last January after racking up 14.
