Professional career

New York Giants

Cisowski was selected by the New York Giants in the 8th round (214th overall) of the 1986 NFL Draft.[2] He was waived on August 4.[3]

Dallas Cowboys

On December 20, 1986, he was signed as a free agent by the Dallas Cowboys.[4] He was released on September 7, 1987.[5]

After the NFLPA strike was declared on the third week of the 1987 season, those contests were canceled (reducing the 16 game season to 15) and the NFL decided that the games would be played with replacement players. He was re-signed to be a part of the Dallas replacement team that was given the mock name "Rhinestone Cowboys" by the media.[6] He started 3 games at right tackle. He was released on October 26.[7]

In 1988, he was signed to participate in training camp. He was released on August 29.[8]
