There’s no NFL organization quite as great as the Dallas Cowboys… just ask Jerry Jones. Seriously though, over the years the Cowboys have had a remarkable run of top-shelf skill position players who have earned they way into the history books. The Cowboys have a whopping 30 players or coaches currently enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton, OH and many of them are there for their ability to get the ball in the end zone.
Related, the club’s 64-year history has seen a steady stream of players move in and out of the franchise’s all-time touchdown leaderboard over the years. There are quite a few outlets where one can look through those names, but why limit the fun? Content creator Greg Harvey (@BetweenTheNums on Twitter/X) has produced a motion graphic showing the fluidity of the team’s leaderboard over the years.
From Frank Clarke to Bob Hayes to Tony Dorsett to Emmitt Smith, with Michael Irvin and Dez Bryant getting their time near the top… it’s a laundry list of who’s who among pass catchers and running backs in the organization. Check it out below.
Next up in the All-Time TD graphic series are the @dallascowboys, who joined the NFL in 1960.
