DALLAS (660 NEWS) – The Dallas Cowboys made a purrfect addition to its lineup over the weekend.
The team announced its starting lineup on Twitter before its Sunday night match with the Minnesota Vikings, featuring a famous feline now known as The MVP Rally Cat.

Last week, the black cat ran onto the field during a Monday Night Football game, delaying the match for some time.
Video of the cat storming the field–and his eventual touchdown–went viral on social media. The video included the play-by-play call of the moment from one of the announcers at the game.

The cat proved lucky for the team last week as they beat the New York Giants 37-18.
Unfortunately, the luck ran out for the Cowboys as they lost 28-24 to the Vikings on Sunday.
