2017 season

[edit | edit source]

After going undrafted in the 2017 NFL draft, Jarwin signed with the Dallas Cowboys as an undrafted free agent on May 12, 2017.[9] He was waived on September 2, 2017[10] but was signed to the practice squad the next day.[11]

On October 26, 2017, Jarwin was promoted to the active roster, in order to avoid the Philadelphia Eagles signing him. The move forced the Cowboys to keep four tight ends.[12] Jarwin appeared in only one game in his rookie year and recorded no statistics.[13]

2018 season

[edit | edit source]

With the unexpected retirements of starter Jason Witten and backup James Hanna, Jarwin had a chance to compete for the starting tight end position, but was named the backup behind Geoff Swaim.[14][15]

After Swaim was lost to an injury in Week 11, rookie Dalton Schultz passed Jarwin on the depth chart as the starter and was used mostly for blocking purposes. In the regular-season finale against the New York Giants, Jarwin had the best game of his career, catching seven passes for 119 yards and three touchdowns in a narrow 36–35 road victory.[16] Jarwin became the sixth tight end in franchise history to post a 100-yard receiving game and was named the National Football Conference Offensive Player of the Week for his spectacular performance.[17]

Jarwin was named the starter for four games when the Cowboys used multiple tight end sets, finishing his second professional season with 27 receptions for 307 yards and three touchdowns.[18]

2019 season

[edit | edit source]

In 2019, although Swaim left via free agency, Witten returned to play professional football after spending the previous season as a Monday Night Football commentator.[19] Jarwin was a backup at tight end behind Witten, posting 31 receptions for 365 yards and three touchdowns. Jarwin had a chance to start in seven contests, when the team opened the game in a two tight end formation.[20]

2020 season

[edit | edit source]

On March 16, 2020, Jarwin signed a three-year, $24.25 million contract extension.[21] The following day, it was announced in the media that Witten would be leaving the Cowboys to sign with the Las Vegas Raiders, making Jarwin the starter at tight end.[22]

During the season opener against the Los Angeles Rams, Jarwin recorded a 12-yard reception in the first half before leaving the eventual 20-17 road loss with a knee injury.[23] The next day, it was announced that he would be out for the season to undergo anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery and was placed on injured reserve on September 15.[24][25] He was replaced with Schultz in the starting lineup.

2021 season

[edit | edit source]

Jarwin returned as the backup to Schultz. He suffered a career-threatening hip injury in the seventh game against the Minnesota Vikings and was placed on injured reserve on November 6, 2021.[26]

Jarwin was activated on January 8, 2022. He played in the regular-season finale against the Eagles and the Wild Card playoff loss to the San Francisco 49ers. Jarwin finished the 2021 season with 11 receptions for 96 yards and two touchdowns in eight games and five starts.[27]

On March 11, 2022, Jarwin was released after not being able to recover his previous form.[28]
