Jason Witten Dismisses Cowboys Coaching Speculation, Aims for NFL Future

Jason Witten has put to rest rumors about joining the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff, stating that he did not discuss the position with team owner Jerry Jones. Although he expressed a long-term goal of coaching the Cowboys one day, he is currently focused on his role as head coach at Liberty Christian School, where he has led his team to back-to-back state championships. Witten acknowledged that while he would love to coach the Cowboys, the timing isn't right as he enjoys coaching his sons and being involved with the high school program. He emphasized support for new head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who was chosen after a thorough selection process. Witten remains open to future opportunities in the NFL, noting that he will be ready when the right chance arises. He is also eligible for the Hall of Fame in 2026, highlighting his significant legacy with the Cowboys as their all-time receptions and yards leader.
