Cowboys Tight End Jason Witten retires; Will join Monday Night Football

The time has come for the Dallas Cowboys to bid farewell to one of the organization's most classiest players, Jason Witten who is retiring after a 15-year career in the NFL.

Witten is the Cowboys all time leader in receptions (1,152) and receiving yards (12,448) but it will be hard for the Cowboys to replace him in terms of leadership.

The writing has been on the wall for a while now, from rumors that his alma mater University of Tennessee wanted to interview him for a head coaching job to Broadcasting for networks.

The 11-time Pro Bowl selection will however become a part of the Monday Night Football crew beginning later this year. Witten has the type of personality that will transition well and win over fans quickly.

Grady Jarrett needs a big body on the other side of him, with Dontari Poe hitting free agency Atlanta has to get a space eater/gap filler that helps in the run game. Austin Hooper has been a good addition to the Falcons offense, but still needs to grow and Atlanta needs reliable hands in the red zone. Wes Schweitzer has not been consistent and has seen some bad snaps that could land him as a role player. This could be the position the Falcons could use the 26th pick but that still remains to be seen. The Falcons need depth at the safety with the team releasing Ishmael and R...

The NBA has some of the best athletes in sports but when it comes to playing basketball, some players stand out and know how to take their game to another level. Here are my top 10 players that can do just that, play at another level. 1.
