Records: Cowboys employees settle with builder

DALLAS — Two Dallas Cowboys employees injured when the team’s practice facility collapsed last year have reached settlements with the company that built the structure.

Court filings in the lawsuits brought by Cowboys scout Rich Behm and special teams coach Joe DeCamillas show that both have settled with Summit Structures LLC of Allentown, Pa., and its Canadian parent, Cover-All Building Systems Inc.

The filings were made last Friday, and one says the agreements are confidential.

The settlements do not affect the other defendants named in the lawsuits, including companies controlled by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

The steel and fabric building collapsed in a wind storm in May 2009, paralyzing Behm from the waist down. DeCamillas suffered a broken vertebrae.
