Jason Witten interviewed for FOX broadcasting role?

[Star Guard_31]

Apologies if this has already been discussed and I missed it, but this report would seem to imply that Witten was -- and perhaps still is -- contemplating retiring this offseason.

"Instead, FOX will have to turn to Plan B. Kurt Warner is expected to be among those considered for the job, according to Marchand. Cowboys tight end Jason Witten, retired quarterback Carson Palmer and retired offensive linemen Joe Thomas auditioned with the network."

TE 2nd round!

 

[The Quest for Six]

TE 2nd round!

That's the last round I want to take another failed tight end....

 

[conner01]

If they plan to hire him I hope it’s in the next week or two
I don’t think he would take it if it pushed up against the draft and left the team hanging

 

[conner01]

That's the last round I want to take another failed tight end....

Our famous second rnd picks lol
Actually if you look at our second rnd picks they are a little better hit rate than league avg
Even at TE
They just didn’t make an impact here because there was a HOF player in front of them

Witten has my support for the HoF. I don't like to give that kind of praise out easily.

 

[Bleedblue1111]

Nooooo! Witten is my man crush on this team. One reason I tune in each week, is to watch him truck DB's every so often.

lol once every 2 years.

 

[KingintheNorth]

When he restructured it pretty much signified that he was playing another year.

 

[Denim Chicken]

Do people really think a rookie would come in and out play Witten?

 

[Corso]

I'm cool with him sticking, but I also look forward to hearing him calling games, or giving analysis.
He has a brain and the experience to add a lot to any booth, or show on the NFL.

TE 2nd round!

That's worked out well in the past....

 

[Bleedblue1111]

lol once every 2 years.

Then he's due for one this season.

 

[Vinnie2u]

That's worked out well in the past....

When we should of, 2 years ago. Hunter Henry. We didn’t. This year I’m for Gisicki in the 2nd.

 

[Aven8]

TE 2nd round!

3rd time is a charm!

 

[visionary]

Only way to force our FO and coaches to wake up

 

[Cowpolk]

That's worked out well in the past....

Trade back and get two of them

Amazing right? Its almost as if half the board thinks all TE's do is sprint down the middle of the field.

It’s going to be a sad day for me when Witten retires, he’s my favorite Cowboy ever.
