Phil Pozderac Biography

Phil Pozderac is one of the most popular and richest American Football Player who was born on December 19, 1959 in Cleveland, Cleveland, United States. In 1986 he was the starter left tackle, before losing his job to Mark Tuinei and being moved to the other side. He also received two infamous penalties that negated critical first downs during the final 75 seconds of a 17-14 loss against the New York Giants, propelling the team to a Super Bowl Championship. The coaches and media speculated that he became a target of the league’s referees, gaining notoriety for holding and false start penalties. A standing joke in Dallas would be to list Pozderac’s 5 best plays with the answer being – #1 Holding, #1 Holding, #3 Holding, #4 Holding, #5 False start.

In 1991 he attempted a comeback with the Indianapolis Colts, but was released before the start of the season.

Pozderac has worked with the Fellows Research Group to aid research regarding the viability of thermo-acoustic devices for low temperature electric energy generation. He also had part ownership in a manufactured housing plant in Laredo Texas and a sawmill in Oklahoma. As of 2013, he was the Operations Director at the Mulligan Mint, a private minting facility in Dallas, Texas.

In 1984, after the retirement of Donovan, he beat former first round selection Howard Richards for the starting left tackle job (7 starts), before being moved to the right tackle position, when Cooper missed half of the season after being injured on a bizarre accident, when he slipped and broke his ankle while rising from a table at a night club, while watching Monday Night Football.

In 1983, he started two regular season contests in place of an injured Donovan and played left tackle on all short-yardage and goal situations when the Cowboys went to a 3 three-tight end formation. He started the 7th game of the season against the Philadelphia Eagles at right tackle in place of an injured Jim Cooper.

He suddenly retired during the 1987 NFL strike and was replaced by rookie Kevin Gogan at right tackle.
