The Dallas Cowboys featured a red stripe on their football helmets for Sunday’s game against the Denver Broncos and while the marking may seem out of place the reason behind it is noble.
Former President George W. Bush stands among members of the U.S. armed forces during the national anthem before the Denver Broncos and Dallas Cowboys game in Arlington, Texas, on Sunday, Nov. 7, 2021.
"The red stripe on the helmet provides a beautiful ribbon to wrap around this salute to those who currently serve our country's military – and the patriotic love and appreciation that we all share for those who came before them."Dallas Morning NewsMike McCord, the team’s equipment director, told the Cowboys’ pregame show on Friday that the players were amped to wear the Salute to Service items.
Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott runs for a long gain against the Denver Broncos in Arlington, Texas, on Sunday, Nov, 7, 2021."Whatever is new or different, they are like kids in a candy store. And when it comes to Salute to Service, we’ve had so many players over the years from military families, whether it’s their mother or father or grandfather or uncle who has served. They’ve always appreciated the Salute to Service games," McCord said.
