Former Nebraska Football linebacker Luke Gifford made his National Football League debut with the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday. With the Cowboys facing off against the San Francisco 49ers, it was a defensive-minded game. The Cowboys came out on the losing edge of things by a 17-9 defeat.
For his part, Gifford had a pretty good game on Saturday. Statistically, he made his mark with the reps he received. Recording two tackles and an interception, he was noticeably all over the field. It was good to see him get those reps in, and he certainly will be a player to watch, as long as his injury doesn’t hold him back.
