TIDBIT: What are we waiting for in signing Witten?
TIDBIT from Lenny P. Tipsheet:
Witten receiving praise: Dallas officials haven't yet started negotiations on a contract extension for tight end Jason Witten, and they really don't have to yet, since the former Tennessee star is only in his third season. Even though Witten has reached performance levels that void the final two years of his original five-year contract, signed as a third-round pick in 2003, Dallas can retain him by making him a restricted qualifying offer.
SEASON REC YDS Y/G AVE. YAC TD
2003 35 347 23.1 9.9 3.1 1
2004 87 980 63.3 11.3 4.0 6
2005 (after 6 games) 28 317 52.8 11.3 2.8 2
2005 (projected) 75 846 52.8 11.3 2.8 5
After a slow start, Witten is once again emerging as a key member of the Cowboys' passing attack. Comments?
