Cowboys teammates claim Jason Witten is looking faster than he has in years

Jason Witten has had a remarkable career. Production, durability, leadership - he’s the consummate professional and a sure Hall of Famer. But after 15 years in the rough waters of the NFL, a body can get beaten down. Over the past few seasons of Witten’s playing days, his numbers had dipped and he wasn’t very elusive after the catch, once he caught the ball that was likely all the yards he was going to get. That was okay, considering he could still get himself open and provide a safety outlet for Dak Prescott, and his leadership abilities and work ethic were still highly valued by the Cowboys.
