As a player, Jason Garrett is remembered by NFL fans for one game in particular.

On November 24, 1994, Garrett was called up as quarterback for the struggling Dallas Cowboys team on Thanksgiving against the Green Bay Packers. Garrett completed 15 of his 26 passes for 311 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in a 42-31 Cowboys win.

This Thanksgiving, NBC showed footage of Garrett receiving his customary turkey leg as the man himself called the Miami Dolphins’ prime-time game against the Packers.

“The key question is, what happened to the turkey leg?” play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico asked Garrett.

“Do you know something? I had it in the freezer. It was in aluminum foil. I probably had it for 15 years,” Garrett replied.

Tirico looked incredulous, as simple calculations extend the turkey leg’s lifespan well into Garrett’s tenure as an assistant in Dallas.

“I called my wife the other day and asked, ‘Do we still have the turkey leg?’ She said, ‘No, it’s long gone,'” Garrett said.

“I hope not!” Tirico added, speaking for the rest of America.
