Wouldn't be suprised if him and Irving dont play again this year. No point in keeping Austin after this year. Only worth keep irving If hes cheap.
Like we know how to do anything more with him than run jet sweeps.
You know what? With Austin healthy the Cowboys have pretty good offensive personnel. There is no reason the Cowboys offense should be anemic.
they were still trying to figure a lot of things out as the team was still struggling, with out a #1 WR. How about seeing how he does with Cooper in there.
I seriously don't see us incorporating him at this point as a major component of the offense. I was half-joking with my previous comment, but I see him mainly being out there for a few plays either to run the jet sweep or fake it (to try to get the defense to not key on Elliott), maybe run a receiver screen. I can't see him taking much playing time from Cooper, Gallup or Beasley. I'm not sure he'll even get Brown's snaps since he is out there as a blocker. He might take Hurns or at least split them.
Very productive per touch run or catch. He should have gotten the ball more. About a jillion times better than having Jourdan Lewis run/fake jet sweeps.
I'm hoping we keep him for next year. I think he really complements our base offense.

I can see them trying a few plays we normally would not see this week. As a try it to see if it works play. Or as plays to throw off the playoff opponent.
Show them one thing, do another.
I'd love to see it, but it would come as a surprise to me. Now, plays like the inside flip to Cooper that we attempted in the red zone against Tampa would definitely be something we'd see a healthy Austin do instead because of his running ability. Would love to see us isolate him on a safety, linebacker or nickel corner and go deep against the Giants again.
I just don't think we're all that good at showing one thing and doing another. If he's out there, I'd be watching as a defense for the jet sweep, the fake jet sweep and maybe the tunnel screen. Us using him downfield like we did against the Giants would actually be a surprise.
Not so sure about letting him go.Wouldn't be suprised if him and Irving dont play again this year. No point in keeping Austin after this year. Only worth keep irving If hes cheap.

I like him as our backup to Zeke on the plays where Zeke feels the need to come out. As well as punt returner and slot receiver
I'm hopeful but not confident Tavon can spark anything with that half healed groin.Tavon Austin Could Spark Cowboys Offense in Playoffs
