Kitna, 41, who retired from the Cowboys at the end of the 2011 season, would not start if Romo’s back injury keeps him out of the lineup. Instead, Kitna would be Kyle Orton’s backup. Kitna has been living it up in retirement, working as a math teacher for his high school alma mater in Tacoma, Wash., and also serving as its football coach. Kitna is expected to make about $55,000 for his week’s worth of NFL work, the Seattle Times notes, which would be good money for most any high school teacher....

But instead of Lamb getting caught by Philadelphia at No. 21, Jerry Jones and the Cowboys did the honors of denying them their ideal selection — by taking him four picks earlier. If this was the latest season of “Curb Your Enthusiasm,” Jones would be Larry David opening up “Jerry’s Java” right next to (Howie) “Roseman’s Roasters.” Only in this case, this “spite pick” actually makes a lot of sense: It make the Cowboys’ offense that much better equipped to take back the NFC East from the Eagles....

The search for John Doe No. 2 took a farcical turn last week. Outside a Holiday Inn in Bloomington, Minn.. four TV cameras joined a stakeout for another possible John Doe No. 2. Busy negotiating with camera crews to move back, the FBI agents on the scene failed to notice that the suspect had emerged from the hotel and driven off in his car. A clumsy chase, involving two dozen law-enforcement vehicles, ensued through the rush-hour traffic, until the man was finally flushed from his car at gunpoint....

The White Sox sent reliever Craig Kimbrel to the Dodgers in exchange for outfielder AJ Pollock on Friday, according to MLB.com. For Kimbrel, this is the fourth different team over the past five seasons for an ace reliever that is the active career leader in saves with 372.

Dallas also scored more than any Cleveland opponent in 2016 during Sunday’s 35-10 rout. MORE: Cowboys-Browns highlights, stats Sure, some of that dominance, all the way through the red zone, came from the fact that the Cowboys were playing a terrible defense.
