Former Tiger Standout Finds New NFL Home With Dallas Cowboys

Urban, who spent the last three seasons with the Seattle Seahawks, enjoyed his best games playing against the Cowboys.  In 2004, he scored a go-ahead touchdown late in the game in a wild 43-39 loss against Dallas, and last year, he caught three passes for 57 yards in Seattle's 13-10 win.

Urban tied the Trinity record with 35 career receiving touchdowns, broke the school record for points scored and total touchdowns scored, and also holds the school record for most kickoff return yards in a career.  He also holds the single season record with 17 touchdown receptions in 2002, broke the school's scoring record in 2002, and continues to hold the record with 611 kickoff return yards that year.  Maybe his most impressive record is his 19 total touchdowns scored that year, breaking a record that had stood for nearly 30 years previously.

In addition to setting numerous school records in football, Urban was also a four-time SCAC Male Track & Field Athlete of the Year.  He still holds the school record in the 100 meter dash, the 400 meter dash, the 400 meter hurdles, the long jump, and the triple jump.  He was also a member of the record-breaking 1,600 meter relay team.
