Jason Witten Leaves Dallas for Raiders, Leaving Jarwin as TE1 with Cowboys

It’s Blake Jarwin time in Dallas.

A day after the former OSU walk-on signed a $24.25 million deal to re-up with the Cowboys, long-time starter Jason Witten, last year’s TE1, has signed with the Las Vegas Raiders. It should plant Jarwin firmly at the top of the position’s depth chart headed into the fall.

For folks with eyes, this should’ve happened last year. Witten was as rusty on the field as he was in the Monday Night Football booth. But benching a Hall of Famer with a strong locker room voice for an up-and-comer still cutting his teeth in the league may have affected some locker room dynamics.
