Chuck
Howley was selected in the 1st round of the 1958
NFL draft by the Chicago Bears. After suffering a
career threatening knee injury he decided to retire
at the end of the 1959 season. In 1961 Chuck decided
to give football another shot and the Cowboys gave
him that shot. It turned to work well for the Cowboys
as Howley played for 13 years with the Cowboys earning
Pro-Bowl honors 6 times. Chuck holds the distinction
of being the only player on a loosing team to win
MVP honors of a Super Bowl (Super Bowl V). Chuck became
the 4th member of the Cowboys Ring of Honor when he
was inducted in 1976.
