The Jerry Jones’ Dallas Cowboys move differently than the rest of the NFL’s 31 teams. They’re “all in” on “getting it done with less.”
Dallas parted ways with head coach Mike McCarthy after five seasons, and then Jones decided to promote McCarthy’s offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to be the Cowboys’ next head coach .
Jones did so despite Schottenheimer not calling the plays in each of his last two seasons as the team’s OC since that was a responsibility McCarthy famously retook after Kellen Moore departed to be the Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator in 2023.
Jones, who is now 82-years-old, has indicated with his actions that he prefers comfort and profit margins over a true “all in” pursuit of another Super Bowl.
The Cowboys have spent the fewest amount of money on free agents, $20.47 million per OverTheCap.com, since the conclusion of last season’s Super Bowl, and Dallas signed Schottenheimer, a first-time NFL head coach, to a four-year deal that will likely be one the league’s lowest in compensation given the unique circumstances around Schottenheimer’s promotionq.
The Cowboys notably didn’t interview any of the NFL’s top candidates this hiring cycle including: former Lions OC/now-Chicago Bears head coach Ben Johnson, now-New England Patriots head coach Mike Vrabel, former Lions DC/now-New York Jets head coach Aaron Glenn (a former Cowboys corner), Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores, six-time Super Bowl head coach Bill Belichick or Washington Commanders offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury.
Dallas interviewed four candidates before settling on their current offensive coordinator down the hall. No other team attempted to interview Schottenheimer this hiring cycle, so the 51-year-old didn’t have any real leverage when hammering out the specifics of his new deal
