Tight end cited as biggest red flag for Cowboys, but other spots may be of greater concern

When assessing a roster in the NFL, tight end can sometimes get overlooked. Unless you got a Rob Gronkowski, Travis Kelce, or George Kittle type of force on your team, the position becomes a case of do you at least have a competent one. The Cowboys had a competent one last year, a player who was once among the best in the game and a Hall of Famer in Jason Witten.

Even though Witten caught 63 passes last year, good for eighth among tight ends, his skills had diminished.
