FRISCO, Texas -- There are a million Jason Witten memories for everybody.
The helmetless catch against the Philadelphia Eagles in 2007 is perhaps the one most replayed in the minds of Dallas Cowboys fans. Sandwiched by two defenders, Witten’s helmet popped off but he kept running down the field anyway, gaining extra yards before getting out of bounds. As the television cameras closed in on Witten, a small trickle of blood could be seen under his nose.
In fact, as players walk into the facility at the the Star, they can look up and see a giant picture of Witten’s helmetless catch-and-run as a reminder of his toughness.
