Jason Calvin Garrett, born on March 28, 1966, is a former professional football player and coach who made a significant impact in the National Football League (NFL). Garrett is best known for his tenure as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, a position he held for over nine seasons from 2010 to 2019. His leadership during this period helped shape the Cowboys' competitive edge, although the team did not reach the Super Bowl under his guidance. Garrett's coaching career was marked by his ability to develop quarterbacks and manage offensive strategies, which earned him respect across the league.

Before his coaching career, Garrett had a notable playing career as a quarterback. He played college football for the Princeton Tigers, where he demonstrated his leadership and football IQ. In the NFL, Garrett served as a backup quarterback for several teams, most notably the Dallas Cowboys, where he was part of three Super Bowl-winning teams in the 1990s. As a backup to Hall of Famer Troy Aikman, Garrett played a crucial role in supporting the team’s success during their championship runs, even though his playing time was limited.

After retiring as a player, Garrett transitioned into coaching, starting as the quarterbacks coach for the Miami Dolphins. His success in this role led to his return to the Cowboys as the offensive coordinator and assistant head coach. His offensive schemes and ability to work with quarterbacks were instrumental in his promotion to head coach in 2010. Despite mixed results during his head coaching tenure, Garrett's influence on the Cowboys' offensive development and his steady leadership were widely acknowledged.

In 2022, Garrett shifted to broadcasting, becoming a color commentator for NBC Sports. He now provides insightful analysis for Notre Dame football and serves as an alternate color commentator for the NFL on NBC. Additionally, Garrett is a studio analyst for NBC's NFL pregame show, Football Night in America, where his deep knowledge of the game continues to be a valuable asset to viewers.
