Tony Romo Calls Jason Witten 'Best Player I Ever Played With' in Emotional Letter

Jason Witten officially retired from the NFL last week, and former Dallas Cowboys teammate Tony Romo had some kind words to say about the tight end:

Tony Romo

The standard that every future cowboy will have to live up to. Thank you Jason Witten. You will be missed bro. https://t.co/d9a4RI6N9T

"Not only was Jason the most talented, humble and hardest working individual on the football team, but he was also one of the most genuine, good-hearted you could ever meet," Romo wrote.

Witten joined the Cowboys in 2003, one year before Romo arrived in 2004.
