Nate Livings

Livings attended Washington-Marion Magnet High School where he played defensive tackle.

He had academic eligibility problems and instead of going to a junior college, chose to sit out two full years taking correspondence courses.

He received a scholarship from Louisiana State University, where he was a three-year starter and played every offensive line position except center.

Livings signed as a free agent with the Dallas Cowboys on March 16, 2012, with the intention of replacing Kyle Kosier.

On September 1, 2013, he was placed on the injured reserve list after missing most of the pre-season with a right knee injury, the same problem that bothered him for much of the previous year.
