The franchise of Leon Lett still doesn’t know when to not touch a blocked kick.
The Dallas Cowboys seemed to have a huge blocked punt right after the two-minute warning, which would have given them great field position in a 20-20 game against the Cincinnati Bengals on Monday night. The block by linebacker Nick Vigil was clean. But, like Lett infamously touching a blocked field goal in the snow in a 1993 Thanksgiving game, cornerback Amani Oruwariye didn’t let the live ball alone after the block. Oruwariye tried to field it, making the ball live. The Bengals recovered.
