Cowboys legend, Hall of Famer retires for 2nd time
Cowboys legend, Hall of Famer retires for 2nd time Going fishing in the Florida Keys while sipping on a Heineken looks like the plan for former Cowboys head coach and Hall of Famer Jimmy Johnson. The Fox NFL Sunday pregame host announced on The Herd with Colin Cowherd he is retiring from the beloved television show after 27 years on the set. Johnson had been with the network since the program debuted during the 1994 season. He took a four-year hiatus to return to coaching with the Miami Dolphins, but as soon as that run ended he returned to the studio. The 81-year-old now looks forward to the next chapter of his life. 'I've made an extremely difficult decision,' Johnson said. 'I've been thinking about it for the last four or five years, but I've decided to retire from Fox. I'm gonna miss it, I'm gonna miss all the guys but it has been a great run starting 31 years ago.' - Jimmy Johnson on The Herd Johnson sent shock waves back in October of 1989 as a rookie head coach when he, along with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, traded star running back Herschel Walker to Minnesota for a bounty of draft picks. The great train robbery, as some have called it, paved the way for Dallas to remake their roster en route to Super Bowl glory. The former University of Miami coach won Super Bowl XXVII and Super Bowl XXVIII with the Cowboys before things turned sour between he and Jerry Jones in Dallas. The Cowboys would go on to win Super Bowl XXX against the Pittsburgh Steelers with a roster mainly composed of players Johnson acquired during his tenure. Johnson would eventually lead Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino and the Dolphins from 1996-1999 before turning to the Fox news desk for good, teaming up with Howie Long, Terry Bradshaw, and Curt Menefee. Before Super Bowl LIX, Fox prepared somewhat of a farewell video of the life and legacy of Johnson beginning with his National Championship run with the University of Arkansas back in 1964. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones was a teammate of Johnson during that time. Cowboys fans have taken to social media to express their gratitude for the impact Johnson had in Dallas. Former players are starting to share their favorite stories about the beloved coach. If this is the end of Johnson and his NFL career, it is only appropriate to end this with one simple line. Fantastic, fantastic, fantastic career and the only thing I've got to say is "How Bout them Cowboys!"
