Witten’s name has been involved in the Cowboys 2025 offseason search for a new head coach to replace Mike McCarthy, some even saying he’s a genuine candidate. To what extent Witten’s been involved with the open position is still up in the air.

It's no secret Jerry Jones believes Dallas Cowboys legend Jason Witten can make a good head coach in the NFL. Earlier this year, Jones went on 105.3 The Fan and emphatically said so. As such, Witten is considered a legit candidate for the Cowboys' head coaching vacancy by fans and media alike.
