Best Dallas Cowboys player to wear No. 95 earned multiple medals in the Air Force

Writing for The Landry Hat, Luke Norris named defensive tackle Chad Hennings as the best player in Dallas Cowboys history to wear the featured jersey number in the series. Hennings was drafted by Dallas in the 11th round of the 1988 NFL Draft out of the U.S. Air Force Academy, but his professional football career was delayed until 1992 while he completed active military service as a pilot.

During his military service, Hennings flew 45 missions during Operation Provide Comfort and earned two Air Force Achievement Medals. Joining the Cowboys at age 26, he went on to win three Super Bowls, recording 269 total tackles and 27.5 sacks across nine seasons before retiring after the 2000 campaign.
