Bill Belichick Could Be At Top Of Cowboys' Head-Coach Wish List
47 seconds agoAfter parting ways with head coach Mike McCarthy on Monday, the Dallas Cowboys will quickly move on to trying to find his replacement this offseason, and CBS Sports' Jonathan Jones reports that University of North Carolina head coach and former New England Patriots head coach Bill Belichick could be at the top of owner Jerry Jones' wish list. Belichick and Jones have had a good relationship over the decades, and sources indicated that Belichick had interest in the Dallas head-coach job if it should open up. Belichick is now the head coach for the Tar Heels, but he has a $10 million buyout if he were to leave UNC before June 1. The buyout drops to $1 million after June 1 of this year. If Dallas is willing to wait, they could also be interested in Detroit Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who already interviewed with the Patriots, Jaguars, Raiders and Bears for their head-coach jobs over the weekend.
