This is why Jason Witten is high on my list.

[Nine_Lives]

Witten has informed the team he is willing to sign a medical waiver that would not hold the Cowboys or team doctors liable in case he re-injured his lacerated spleen during the NFC East matchup, according to team sources

He needs to check with Chris Simms before making any rash decisions.

Guy is a throwback, wants to play. Gotta give him props for that.

Jason Witten is high on my list because he is a fundamentally sound TE who can make plays and score touchdowns.

[The Saltman]

I like him cause he is white.

[Nine_Lives]

^ yes, to both.

I love Witten....wish he was a Panther. Admire his spirit but sounds a bit reckless to let him play. Sounds like the Cowboys are going to do the right thing (but likely not for the right reasons.)

[Johnny Rockets]

Hard not to like the guy that is for sure.

I LOATHE the Cowpukes, but Witten is one of my faves. Same with Ware and Marion Barber when he played.

[Nine_Lives]

Witten will play tonight. Badass! But i hope the Gaints beat the snot out of his team. Good luck Witten.

There's nothing to praise about someone playing with an injury. It's reckless and is a foolish decision in the long term. Grant Hill decided to tough it out for the Pistons in the playoffs. He hobbled his way to a three game series loss to the Heat and his career was ruined.

Well, at least Orlando was stupid enough to give him 93 million dollars over 7 years guaranteed.

Jokes on them.

[Jackofalltrades]

It's his life and his legacy.

His heart
