Emmitt Smith broke his hand scoring a touchdown against the Minnesota Vikings during a Monday night Football game in November 1999, on a night when both he and Troy Aikman were both injured and out of the game. The Vikings upset the Cowboys by scoring 27 straight points that gave them a 27-17 win over the Cowboys.Wwith 6:21 left in the second quarter, Smith broke loose. With a first down at his own 37, he broke through over right tackle, cut right and outran the Vikings defense until rookie cornerback Kenny Wright jumped him behind at the 10. Rather than shrug him off, Smith simply carried Wright to the end zone. But in the process of trying to push off Wright, Smith apparently broke his hand. "I don't know how he hurt his hand," Wright said. "Maybe he did it grabbing my face mask." On the ensuing kickoff, Minnesota's David Palmer was stripped by Dat Nguyen, and Williams recovered. On the next play, Smith -- who broke the fourth metacarpal bone in his right hand on the first scoring run of 63 yards -- went over left tackle, weaving through the defense for his second TD in 18 seconds. http://sportsmed.starwave.com/nfl/1999/991108/recap/dalmin.html; http://sportsmed.starwave.com/nfl/news/1999/1108/160007.html
