The new coaching staff wanted a change at TE. Coaching was not an option in Dallas for Witten. So he was forced out. Good for him for finding another team, but he should have just retired. Maybe he chose to still play because he knows he has no future in broadcasting... he burned that bridge at MNF.
It didn't sound like the convo with McCarthy went very well. Though it seems McCarthy may have been open to a low level coaching position or competing for a roster spot. Just wasn't of interest to Witten so he decided to move on as he felt he could do more.
