Written would be the classic yes man, since no one else would hire him as an NFL head coach.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones when asked on @1053thefan if he thinks former Cowboys TE Jason Witten could one day be an NFL coach: "Yes. Without hesitation. Yes. He has something that you can't draw up. He reminds me a lot of our other tight end who is head coach up there in Detroit right now (Dan Campbell).

"Jason is very sophisticated when it comes to understanding football and all the nuances. But more important than anything, he really does understand the physical and the mentality of being physical and that part of it. Without a question, he could become (an NFL coach). He has extraordinary work ethic. ... He can be a top coach."

LOL. Sounds like Jerry is ready to usher in another Dave Campo era. Though, at least Campo was a successful coordinator.

I dont doubt Witten could be an NFL coach at some point, but I'd also like to see him actually work as an NFL position coach before getting that opportunity. Hiring a guy straight out of the high school level would more laughable than Jason Witten trying to call games on monday night football.
It’s not even HS level. It’s a bunch of kids of some of the richest parents in TX. Some of them bought with free scholarships.

Jerry on a mental tangent in the middle of the worst season in recent memory. Way to stay focused, GM!
