Cowboys' Jay Novacek put on injured reserve,
out for season
By the Associated Press (Jan. 4, 1997)
DALLAS (AP) - The Dallas Cowboys put tight end Jay Novacek
on the injured reserve list Friday, meaning he will not be eligible
to play in any of their postseason contests, including the one
on Sunday against the Carolina Panthers.
Novacek had missed the whole season with a degenerative disk
problem in his back. He had been trying to get well for the playoffs
but experienced some pain trying to run on level ground and the
Cowboys decided his season is over.
Dallas announced four inactives for the Carolina game, including
defensive end Charles Haley, cornerback Wendell Davis and offensive
linemen John Flannery and Tony Hutson.
