Former Cowboys TE-Turned Coach Has Full Respect For Dallas Coaching Staff

IRVING, Texas – The guy on the other sideline this week will certainly look familiar. And not just to Cowboys fans, but to many of the coaches, sideline personnel, and just a few of the players.
While Dan Campbell is trying to make his own mark as the interim head coach of the Dolphins, the former tight end still has plenty of close ties with the Cowboys, including some of the coaches that he respects more than any others.
Campbell played three years in Dallas (2003-05) and was there for the rookie seasons of both Tony Romo and Jason Witten. Over the course of Witten’s career, Campbell is the only player to ever start for the Cowboys at tight end ahead of Witten.
But before and after his days with the Cowboys, Campbell had some connections with some of the current Cowboys coaches.
As a player in New York from 1999-2002, Campbell formed a friendship with Jason Garrett, who became the Giants backup quarterback in 2000.
