IRVING, Texas (AP) - Dat Nguyen was in pain and felt he was hurting the Dallas Cowboys by continuing to play.
"It's pretty much Dat-like for it to be the way that it is," said Dan Campbell, also Nguyen's teammate at Texas A&M. "It was one of those deals where he didn't feel like he was able to give his all."
After a second conversation in a month with coach Bill Parcells in which Nguyen mentioned retirement, the linebacker was placed on the season-ending injured reserve list this week with neck and knee injuries.
