Mike McCarthy Out In Dallas
1 day agoAccording to sources, Mike McCarthy is out as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys after the two sides were unable to agree on the length of a new contract. McCarthy will now pursue other opportunities and is expected to be a prime head-coaching candidate for at least the Chicago Bears this cycle. Despite plenty of turmoil in Dallas, McCarthy leaves the franchise with a winning record (49-35) and three playoff appearances in his time there. In addition to the Bears, the New Orleans Saints are expected to pursue McCarthy for their head-coaching vacancy this offseason. McCarthy's contract with the Cowboys was set to expire on Tuesday, and despite owner Jerry Jones backing him all season long despite a disappointing campaign, the two sides will now part ways.
