One of the all-time great members of the Dallas Cowboys is retiring…again. On Wednesday afternoon news broke that tight end Jason Witten will be signing a one-day contract in March to ride off into the sunset as a member of the franchise he called home for the first 16 seasons of his NFL career.
Unlike his last retirement which came following the 2017 season, this one is likely for good. Following a less than stellar 2019 campaign with the Cowboys, Witten hit free agency and while there were some early conversations around his potential return to Dallas, he ultimately chose to play the 2020 season with the Las Vegas Raiders.
