	Leon Lett - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Leon Lett (born October 12, 1968) is a former American Football defensive tackle who played for the Dallas Cowboys (1991-2000) and the Denver Broncos (2001), after playing college ball at Emporia State University.
		Lett was a talented player and a cornerstone of the Cowboys defense during its heyday in the early 90's, but fans will likely remember him for his infamous "bonehead" plays.
		Lett's gaffe also cost the Cowboys the record for most points scored in a Super Bowl (55, by the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XXIV).

	Cowboys' Leon Lett will start against Panthers
		Lett faces up to 10 league-administered drug tests per month for the rest of his playing career now that he has been reinstated for violating the NFL's drug policy three times, the league said Monday.
		Lett signed a five-year, $12.8 million contract in 1995, so the second NFL drug suspension of his career cost him close to $1.5 million in salary.
		Lett, whom the Cowboys said might speak with reporters later this week, remained in shape by playing basketball and working with a personal trainer during his suspension.

	What impact might Leon Lett have on '97 season
		Lett, 29, is one of the NFL's premier defensive tackles when he absorbs the customary week-to-week pounding.
		Lett was named to the Pro Bowl in 1994 and most likely would have been named to the team the past two years if not for drug suspensions.
		Lett's return would be meaningless if the Cowboys don't win at least two of their next three games against the Redskins, Packers and Oilers.

		And he’s dealing with Lett entirely the wrong way with the league’s recent suspension of the Cowboys’ DT for what was his fifth violation.
		I guess Tagliabue was feeling fortunate that the 300-pound Lett didn’t gripe about having to subject himself to those dumb exams after already failing tests for marijuana at the end of 1995, cocaine in ’96 and two other tests before that.
		Lett should have been out of the league after violation No. 3, but instead he’ll be back in November, just in time to help the Cowboys make their push toward the playoffs.
