Anthony Hitchens Biography

Anthony Hitchens is one of the most popular and richest Football Linebacker who was born on June 10, 1992 in Lorain, Ohio, United States.

He made his professional regular season debut in the Dallas Cowboys’ season- opener against the San Francisco 49ers and assisted on one tackle in the 28-17 loss. He made his first career tackle in the closing seconds of the game, helping safety Barry Church tackle 49ers’ running back Frank Gore who gained five-yards on a short run to seal the win for the 49ers. The following week, Hitchens earned his first career start at weakside linebacker and recorded two combined tackles during a 26-10 victory at the Tennessee Titans. He started in place of Justin Durant, who suffered a groin injury in the season-opener against the San Francisco 49ers. During a Week 3 matchup at the St. Louis Rams, Hitchens collected a season-high 13 combined tackles and deflected a pass in Dallas’ 34-31 victory. He also recorded five combined tackles on special teams. Head coach Jason Garrett named Hitchens the weakside linebacker for the remainder of the season after Justin Durant was placed on injured/reserve after tearing his biceps in the Cowboys’ 20-17 overtime loss to the Washington Redskins on Monday Night Football. On December 21, 2014, Hitchens made eight solo tackles, defended two passes, and has his first career interception after picking off a pass attempt by Indianapolis Colts’ quarterback Matt Hasselbeck during the Cowboys’ 42-7 victory. He was nominated for the Pepsi Rookie of the Week award after his week 16 performance against the Indianapolis Colts. He finished the regular season with 75 combined tackles (59 solo), four pass deflections, and one interception in 16 games and nine starts.

When Sean Lee was lost for the season during organized team activities, and the team traded for Rolando McClain, it was decided to make Hitchens learn all three linebacker positions. He began organized team activities taking reps with the first team defense, but was soon moved to the backup middle linebacker after Justin Durant returned from a hamstring injury. He spent the bulk of training camp at outside linebacker, competing with Justin Durant and Kyle Wilber, before being moved back to middle linebacker. The Dallas Cowboys opted to trade for Rolando McClain and have Hitchens compete with him in training camp. Head coach Jason Garrett named Hitchens the back up middle linebacker to McClain to begin the 2014 Season.

Hitchens was involved in heavily controversial play during the fourth quarter after the back judge threw a flag and penalized Hitchens for pass interference for making contact and pushing off of Lions’ tight end Brandon Pettigrew as he attempted to catch a deep pass by Matt Stafford.

After the game, referee Pete Morelli stated that the line judge determined there was not enough contact to warrant a penalty. The next game, he collected six combined tackles during a 26-21 loss at the Green Bay Packers in the NFC Divisional round.
