Ex-Packers 11 Pro Bowls Wants Back in Dallas Cowboys

Dallas, TX – June 28, 2025

A former Dallas Cowboys icon with an illustrious 11 Pro Bowl career is expressing a heartfelt desire to return to the NFL, this time with the Dallas Cowboys, sources revealed Saturday. Jason Witten, the legendary tight end, has ignited excitement among fans with his emotional plea to rejoin the team that once defined his legacy.

Witten, now 43, spent 15 seasons with the Cowboys (2003-2017, 2019) before a brief stint with the Las Vegas Raiders in 2020 and retirement in 2021. His remarkable tenure in Dallas saw him amass 1,215 receptions—the most in franchise history—and 12,977 receiving yards, earning him the 2012 Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year award. After playing his final NFL snaps with the Raiders, Witten’s heart remains tied to the Cowboys.

In a recent interview, Witten shared the driving force behind his wish to return: “The primary driving force behind my desire to return to the Dallas Cowboys is the profound love I hold for the team that shaped my life and career over 15 remarkable seasons. Dallas is where I matured into the man and player I am today, a place where I built a family, including the birth of my children, making it an inseparable part of my identity. I harbor regret over my brief departure to the Las Vegas Raiders in 2020, yearning for a chance to conclude my journey with the Cowboys in a meaningful way, leaving a lasting legacy by mentoring the next generation and contributing to another Super Bowl pursuit.”

Jason Witten, Master of the Option Route

Cowboys GM Jerry Jones, with $32 million in cap space, sees potential in a low-cost deal to bring Witten back, possibly as a mentor or part-time player. Coach Brian Schottenheimer echoed this sentiment, saying, “Jason’s experience could elevate our young tight ends.” Fans on social media are abuzz, with #WittenReturns trending as supporters celebrate his potential return to stabilize the offense.

Witten’s 2020 season with the Raiders (20 catches, 169 yards) proved he can still contribute, and his desire to guide talents like Jake Ferguson aligns with Dallas’ 2025 Super Bowl aspirations. As training camp approaches, his plea to finish his career in Dallas has stunned and inspired Cowboys Nation. Can this 11-time Pro Bowler reclaim his place and lead the team to glory? Stay tuned for updates.

Dan Campbell Reveals Amon-Ra St. Brown’s Injury Update and Praises His “Extraordinary Will” After 44–30 Win Over Cowboys
Detroit, Michigan – After the fiery 44–30 victory over the Dallas Cowboys, head coach Dan Campbell entered the press room with a mixture of relief and pride. It wasn’t just because the Lions kept their momentum heading into the end of the season — it was also because of positive news regarding star Amon-Ra St. Brown. Campbell confirmed that the ankle injury that had the entire team worried all week is actually only minor and will fully recover in one to two days. Campbell said St. Brown was nearly listed as out before the game, yet he still appeared in the lineup and played at an intensity no different from someone completely healthy. That, according to Campbell, perfectly reflects St. Brown’s true nature. No quitting, no complaining, and always ready to fight for Detroit. In a game with huge playoff implications, that performance became even more valuable. When asked about St. Brown’s spirit, Campbell couldn’t hide his pride. He shared with deep emotion about his player’s tireless fighting mentality. “His will is completely different. He never accepts taking a step back, no matter how much his body hurts. St. Brown is the one who sets the standard for us every day, and no one can replace that spirit.” Those words left the entire press room silent for a few seconds. On the field, St. Brown continued to prove his worth with six catches for 92 yards, becoming the focal point of the Lions’ offense. His presence not only opened opportunities for teammates but also gave Jared Goff confidence in critical moments. Those efforts came from a player who, just hours before kickoff, was still undergoing constant medical checks to determine if he could play. Campbell closed the press conference with a clear message that the win over the Cowboys wasn’t just about tactics or talent — it was about the fighting spirit of players like St. Brown. The news that his injury is only a minor issue allowed the entire team to breathe a sigh of relief. And if the Lions truly want to go far this season, the image of St. Brown rising above the pain will be the inspiration for the whole team on the road ahead.
