HISTORY
COLLEGE: The Dallas Cowboys selected Laurence Gibson in the seventh round (243rd overall) of the 2015
NFL Draft as a developmental prospect along the offensive line. With a recent dedication to building a roster
through the front lines on both sides of the ball, the Cowboys have fostered one of the best offensive line
groups in the NFL, emphasizing that growth through utilizing resources in the draft. Gibson brings the movement
skills of a zone tackle with good lateral quickness and foot speed to set the edge in the run game, and
will look to build his functional strength in order to improve his game at the NFL level.
