The Cowboys are also facing big questions about if Jason Witten will return to the team. There were some who wondered if Witten would be the team's next tight end coach after he made clear if he retires he would like to get into coaching.

“Right here,” Witten said, via the New York Post. “I’ve spent my entire adulthood in pro football. Coaching is coaching. You want to be in a competitive level. … For me, I think this is a level you can have a lot of success in just because you’re so familiar with it. Really your whole life.”

Witten hasn't announced if he will continue playing but if he wants to continue his time with the Cowboys it looks like it's going to have to be on the field. If he is back that will be a big boost to the tight end room.
