The Chicago Bears of the National Football League drafted him out of the university in the first round of the 1958 NFL Entry Draft.

He appeared in 165 games for the Cowboys and has helped the team to two Super Bowls where he was once named as Super Bowl MVP.

 

According to many reviews, Howley’ physical advantage was his speed which made him a very effective linebacker. Together with Lee Roy Jordan and Edwards, he belonged to one of the best linebackers in the history of the national league. He made more than a hundred rushed yards for the 1968 and 1971 season and had 399 yards for his entire career. Howley retired after the 1973 season.
