Potential Cowboys Coaching Candidate Shines in Debut

Former Dallas Cowboys tight end Jason Witten impressed in his debut as the Oklahoma Sooners' interim offensive coordinator. Witten guided Oklahoma's offense to more than 350 total yards during a road upset against the Florida Gators shortly after earning a promotion from tight ends coach.

Writer Mark Heaney argues that Cowboys owner Jerry Jones could view Witten as a potential future head coaching candidate to replace Brian Schottenheimer. However, the writer notes that Witten's limited collegiate experience and desire to coach his son at Oklahoma could factor into any potential NFL move.
