Best Cowboys Tight Ends

The best tight end in Cowboys history is Jason Witten (2000s), rated 88 out of 100 — just ahead of Jay Novacek and Jake Ferguson. Below, all 11 ranked, spanning 1970s–2020s.

These are all-era rankings with no cutoff year: a Cowboys tight end from the 1970s is rated on the same scale as one playing today, which is why this list looks different from rankings that only go back to the modern era. The ratings are the same ones that power 17-0, the free game where you draft a roster of all-time greats and sim whether it goes a perfect 17-0 season.
