Yeah my apologies I think they just exercised his option in March. Lets go Jumbo Joe!

No, he's not Witten of 2010. But he's still an average tight end in the NFL, and above average when it comes to receiver/blocking combinations.
Especially when you have a QB who is largely allergic to throwing the ball to wide receivers.
Well keep in mind he got 2nd round pay for 2 years? which was money for nothing.
I think dallas could have waited and got him in the 6th round.
No, I'm not. The NFL is severely lacking in tight ends who can both block and catch patches. They're unicorns.I’m sorry bro but you are seeing him with your heart and not your eyes. He’s been done for three years.
Our 2020 UFAs (besides the big three) are:
Robert Quinn
La'el Collins
Randall Cobb
Jason Witten
Sean Lee
Byron Jones
L.P. Ladouceur
Maliek Collins
Anthony Brown
Notable RFAs are:
Blake Jarwin
Jaylon Smith
The Patriots were rumored to be selecting him somewhere in the second round. I don’t think he would have stayed on the board that much longer.
Going to be some missing talent around the lockeroom next year.
Here is how the team likely see it:
Quinn - Gone. Counting on one or two of Johnson, Jelks, Gregory to still be around and playing well. Taco won’t be and it will likely be a big drop off.
Collins - Gone. The two Connors will be counted on the complete the OL. Hopefully that works out.
Cobb - Likely Gone unless he does well and wants to stay on an inexpensive deal. They will keep a few of the youngsters and draft a WR next year at some point.
Witten - Most likely gone but it will be up to him. Jarwin, Schultz, and a draft pick will likely man the position next year.
Lee - Most likely gone through retirement. I hope they keep Gifford to slide into the 3rd spot but drafting two LBers next year seems like a good bet.
Jones/Brown - This one is very tricky. You don’t like to let this type of talent leave. One of them will be kept and they hope MJ or Olumba can develop for depth.
LP - Who knows and he doesn’t make enough to worry about. If he plays it will be in Dallas. If he retires, they will find a new guy.
Collins - Likely gone. Don’t see how they will have the money for him unless it comes from Crawford which is possible. I think they reached and had blinders on for Hill as a Collins replacement but I don’t see that working out at this point.
Jarwin - Tendered or signed long term.
Smith - Definately tendered and likely signed to an extension.
Dak, Zeke, and Cooper all signed to extensions.
Like I said, lots of talent going to be gone but at least the cupboard isn’t bone dry behind them. It really does make you think they should be going all in this year. At the very least they should be looking for a veteran backup QB and an improvement at safety.
And in 2018 Witt was just awful. Truly awful.If 2015, 16, 17 are any indication up to 2014! 2017 was was atrocious!
