Dallas Cowboys Staff Tracker (2024-25) (Dallas Cowboys)

With an expiring contract, owner Jerry Jones decided to let Mike McCarthy walk, despite three straight 12-5 seasons and back-to-back-to-back trips to the playoffs before a dip to 7-10 this past fall. 

McCarthy, a veteran NFL coach with head coaching stints in Dallas and Green Bay, went 49-34 as the head coach of America's Team.

The puzzling part of decision to let McCarthy walk was the timing, as the franchise missed out on opportunities to interview top candidates of the cycle like Lions coordinators Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn.

After interviewing just four candidates, Jones decided the best candidate was under the team's roof the entire time, and promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to the head coaching post.

INTERVIEWED (4):

  • Robert Saleh (former Jets HC)
  • Leslie Frazier (Seahawks AHC) 
  • Kellen Moore (Eagles OC)
  • Brian Schottenheimer (Cowboys OC) - *HIRED*
