Amazing Journey to Cowboys
Star: Practice Squad RB Has Already Had Amazing Journey

This story originally appeared in Dallas Cowboys Star Magazine. For subscription information, please click here.

Patricia Jones says that her son, Lance Dunbar, first told her when he was 12 that he wanted to play in the NFL.

In the family’s native New Orleans, that meant a standout career at a local high school, followed by a short drive west on I-10 around Lake Pontchartrain to Baton Rouge to play for LSU, and finally, hopefully, a contract with the New Orleans Saints.

That’s the dream anyway, but few young men are talented enough or lucky enough to make it happen.

Dunbar’s path to the NFL did take him through his local college and his local NFL team. But it was the University of North Texas and the Dallas Cowboys, not LSU and the Saints.

You see, New Orleans isn’t home to Dunbar anymore. It hasn’t been since Hurricane Katrina.
