Cowboys | Leslie Frazier to interview in Dallas Thu Jan 16, 08:59 AM
Seattle Seahawks assistant head coach Leslie Frazier will interview for the Dallas Cowboys head coaching position Monday, Jan. 20.
Link to story Cowboys | Robert Saleh to interview with Dallas Wed Jan 15, 11:53 AM
Former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh is expected to interview for the Dallas Cowboys head coaching vacancy.
| Footballguys view: The Jets were not better without Saleh. His type of no-nonsense coaching style could be perfect for a Cowboys team that needs to reset after Mike McCarthy moved on. Saleh could be bound for the 49ers where he could return to the defensive coordinator role, and some consider him a sleeper for the Jaguars head coaching job. |
Cowboys | Bill Belichick on wish list for Dallas? Tue Jan 14, 01:00 AM
University of North Carolina head coach Bill Belichick might be at the top of the wish list for the Dallas Cowboys, as they look to fill their head coaching position vacancy, according to multiple sources. Belichick and team owner/general manager Jerry Jones reportedly have had a good relationship over the decades, and sources last month indicated Belichick had interest in the Dallas job if it opened up.
| Footballguys view: Belichick signed a contract with UNC with a $10 million buyout if he were to leave the Tar Heels before June 1 of this year. On Monday, FOXSports insider Jordan Schultz reported that Belichick would've been interested in the Dallas Cowboys' head-coaching opening before being hired at UNC if the feeling was mutual. This process is ongoing and will include several high-profile names. We'll follow up on all of them as developments warrant. |
Cowboys | Kellen Moore a head coaching candidate? Tue Jan 14, 12:54 AM
The Dallas Cowboys could be interested in former offensive coordinator Kellen Moore for the team's head coaching vacancy, according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport.
| Footballguys view: As SBNation.com noted, when the Cowboys decided to walk away from five-year head coach Mike McCarthy, they made one clear: Fixing the offense was this offseason's number one priority. Even before QB Dak Prescott went down with a season-ending injury, the Cowboys' offense was a big disappointment during McCarthy's final season in Dallas. While Moore's time in Dallas did not end on the greatest note, there's no denying he had the offense operating at a high level during his time as the team's offensive coordinator. Prescott had two of the best seasons of his nine-year career with Moore as his offensive coordinator and was one of the NFL's best during the four years Moore was Dallas' OC. Getting the most of the quarterback would be a good first step in getting the Cowboys on track and increasing the value of the team's top fantasy prospects. |

Cowboys | Mike McCarthy moving on Mon Jan 13, 12:05 PM
Updating a previous report, Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is expected to be a free agent after two sides failed to agree on the length of a contract, according to sources Monday, Jan. 13.
| Footballguys view: The plot thickens. There have been differing reports about the nature of the outcome. One says they couldn't agree on contract length, the other contends that there were never serious talks about a new deal even though the team blocked the Bears from interviewing McCarthy. It has been reported that the Bears and Saints will both be interested in McCarthy, and he should be considered a strong candidate for at least the New Orleans job. A wide range of names have been tossed out as possibilities in Dallas, including all-time Cowboy great Jason Witten, who is expected to be on the new staff in some shape or form. Former Cowboys and current Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore's name has also come up often. |

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy has not had talks with the Cowboys about a new contract. He's eligible to become a coaching free agent Tuesday, Jan. 14.

Cowboys | Mike McCarthy talks to begin Fri Jan 10, 10:42 AM
Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is set to begin contract discussions with the Cowboys Friday, Jan. 10.
| Footballguys view: The Cowboys can negotiate with McCarthy until January 14th exclusively as that's when his contract is set to expire. They didn't move on from him at the end of the regular season, and they denied the Bears from interviewing him for their head coach vacancy. That must mean they want McCarthy to continue as their head coach. Now, they just need to find the right price and length of contract. |

Dallas Cowboys RB Rico Dowdle ended up with 22 rushes for 72 yards and a touchdown in Week 18 against the Washington Commanders, while adding two receptions for 12 yards on three targets.
| Footballguys view: Dowdle will certainly have company in the backfield next year, but his performance once the Cowboys committed to him was better than expected and should secure him a role as the backup to a highly drafted rookie at worst. Dowdle was good enough to give the Cowboys some thought of waiting until later to take a back and give him the job going into the 2025 season. |

Cowboys | Trey Lance does nothing in Week 18 start Sun Jan 5, 08:12 PM
Dallas Cowboys QB Trey Lance completed 20-of-34 passes for 244 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions in Week 18 against the Washington Commanders, while he ran six times for 26 yards.
| Footballguys view: Lance wasn't terrible and should get some interest as a development third quarterback in free agency after barely getting to play in the first four years of his career. The Cowboys may have earned a compensatory pick for letting Lance play because this could increase his earnings, if it doesn't encourage the Cowboys to try to keep him after having him in the building the last two years. |

He will probably be joined by rookie competition - maybe a first round pick - but Dowdle will have some value as the incumbent starter going into the offseason. |
