![]() ![]() They've had some injuries along their offensive line as well. ![]() I know Tampa is dealing with the same stuff when are you talking about Week 1. Mike McCarthy historically has not been a guy who has wanted to help his tackles. Not to get too much football jargon, but you can turn protection and a lot of those types of things, but it affects them. It definitely affects you, of course, when you have to start giving help to tackles. I think you probably in the back of your mind think that, yeah, this could happen at some point during the season, but you don't expect to lose a starter going into the first game of the season and now possibly maybe for the entire year. They just didn't envision that it would be Week 1. I have heard Stephen Jones and the Cowboys, and it's the right response that that's why they drafted the rookie at left tackle was to eventually take over for Tyron Smith. I mean, it's a lot when you then put in a rookie now. He has had a number of injuries he has to kind of fight through and miss some time. They've had to get used to him being gone a little bit more. They've really struggled when Tyron Smith has missed time in years past. ![]() I kind of am able to keep up with them a lot easier, but the Cowboys, as you probably know, they've always been left-tackle dependent.

Because if his playing career is any indication, his off-the-field accolades are just getting started. It appears time for more space in the trophy case. He finished with 11 Pro Bowl and four All-Pro selections throughout his career and was also named Walter Payton NFL Man of the Year in 2012. These have been his first two years as a coach following his playing career of 17 NFL seasons, 16 of which in Dallas. The eight-win improvement was one of the largest in TAPPS, the Texas Association of Private and Parochial Schools. He took over as head coach prior to the 2021 season which was filled with early adversity and finished with a 2-8 regular season. Witten received the honor Tuesday evening after leading the Liberty Christian Warriors (Argyle, Texas) to a 10-2 record, a district championship, and a trip to the regional round of the TAPPS Division II tournament. Now, his second season as a high school football head coach culminated with being named the TAPPS Coach of the Year. As a player, his second season in the NFL marked his first Pro Bowl appearance and what was a team-record 87 receptions at the time.
