Former Dallas Cowboys Tight End Jason Witten will be making his return to AT&T Stadium for Monday Night Football for the first time since announcing his retirement in April. According to Dallas Cowboys Radio Network Sideline Reporter Kristi Scales, the Cowboys will honor Witten with field decor during the game vs the Tennessee Titans on Monday night.

Jason Witten has gone the way of former teammate Tony Romo and taken a role in the broadcast booth for Monday Night Football and this will be his first time in AT&T Stadium since his retirement.
This is only the first of what will be many post-career honors for the Dallas Cowboys all-time leader in targets, receptions, and yards, and is third in Cowboys history in touchdown receptions. Nobody in Dallas Cowboys history played more games in their career with a star on their helmet than Jason Witten’s 239. He’s a shoe-in for the Cowboys Ring of Honor and a future Hall of Famer (first ballot in my opinion).
Monday night against the Tennessee Titans is a huge game for the Dallas Cowboys and who better to have in the house than arguably the most clutch player the Cowboys have had since 2000.
