When offensive lineman Jonathan Cooper was released by the Cleveland Browns on Dec. 27, he figured his season was over. But then he got word the Dallas Cowboys were interested in signing him. "That was one of those big-eye moments," Cooper said. "I was like, 'Wow, they're on track to do something special, and they want to include me in it.' So that was pretty exciting." (ESPN.com)
