Is Jonathan Cooper The Next Marc Colombo?

Marc Colombo made a nice career for himself as an offensive lineman for the Dallas Cowboys, but it was not always that way.

Colombo was selected by the Chicago Bears in the opening round of the 2002 NFL draft, but the football gods saw no reason to allow the former Boston College lineman to experience success on the shores of Lake Michigan. As a rookie Marc suffered a season ending dislocated patella and some femoral nerve damage during the first half of the season. He spent the entire 2003 season and the first half of the 2004 campaign sidelined with the effects of his injury.
