ESPN's Ed Werder calls TE Jason Witten (spleen) "extremely unlikely" to play in Wednesday night's season opener. This is the feeling we've had all along. Witten is still only 3 weeks into a 4-6 week recovery timetable. He's resumed running but has yet to be cleared for contact. Dallas' Week 2 game against the Seahawks is a legitimate target date for Witten's return. Meanwhile, TE John Phillips will start on Wednesday. He's just a desperation fantasy option.
