Veingrad is a former offensive lineman for the NFL’s Dallas Cowboys, where he blocked for Troy Aikman and Emmitt Smith on the way to a Super Bowl championship in 1992. Gridiron glory ended, and Veingard has begun his second life, this time as a bearded, kipah-wearing shomer Shabbos (Sabbath observant) Jew who davens (prays) three times a day.
