Jason Witten returned to the Dallas Cowboys in 2019. It’s been a fun story. Fun in the sense that you don’t get to see this sort of thing all too often in sports, especially when you factor in where Witten was during his one-year sabbatical. In swapping out his headset for his always-reliable cleats, Jason Witten embarked on a quest that few have ever attempted.
For the most part, Witten has been, well, Witten. He’s been the Jason Witten that we saw before he initially retired following the 2017 season. He still has an ability to find the soft spot of the field every now and then, but he’s also one of the least fast (we’re trying to be nice) players on the field at any given moment.
