Mike McCarthy Out In Dallas
52 seconds 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.
