DeMarco Murray's words mean something to Jason Witten

Murray’s words meant something to Witten. They were teammates for four years but grew especially close in the offseason of 2014. They became workout partners. Murray saw his production soar, leading the NFL with 1,845 yards rushing. He was named the NFL’s Offensive Player of the Year.

Witten made it to his 10th Pro Bowl. It was among the more satisfying years of his career even though he caught only 64 passes.

“People talk about how precious the relationships of teammates are and the brotherhood and bond,” Witten said. “I appreciate DeMarco’s kind words not because he said it but the relationship we have. We had a short few years together and we maximized it. A lot of great shared sacrifices together. Ultimately he was able to have an offensive MVP year and I was just a small part of it. But for him to think I could influence it, I think that’s why you invest the way you do. That’s what teammates do.”

Witten saw a benefit to the workouts together, too.

Romo is getting jealous. He's not one to share BFFs like that.

I wonder if Witten has coaching aspirations.

 

[Longboysfan]

He should give the class for all incoming players each year.

How to be a player in the NFL.

On and off the field.

I wonder if Witten has coaching aspirations.

He could have the Tennessee Volunteers head coaching job if he just asked, I bet.

 

[TheCount]

Good lord, Witten has been to 10 Pro Bowls?

I hate the Pro Bowl, but 10 is an accomplishment.

With out question.

Witten ......

I mean, I don't put him even with Roger. Roger won SBs.....Roger was a QB, Roger was larger then life. And Jerry should just send him a check every now and then.....

It doesn't get any better then Staubach. But I tell you what, Witten has to be in the top 6-7 ......Greatest Cowboys of all time. Smith, Lilly, Dorsett, R white, R Wright, Irvin , Hayes, L allen, D Sanders..

He is right up there with those guys..... its just too bad he has never been to a SB, heck, not even to an NFCCG....... thats sad.
