The Dallas Cowboys are in search of a new head coach for the 2025 NFL season. Reports indicate that Jerry Jones has been in close contact with a Super Bowl-winning coach as a potential candidate for the job.

The Cowboys are one of the most intriguing teams in the NFL each year. Despite having a star-studded roster, they have consistently failed to reach their potential in recent seasons, largely due to coaching challenges.

Just a few days ago, Dallas parted ways with Mike McCarthy. Now, the Lone Star State’s team is exploring several candidates, with numerous high-profile names under consideration for the position.
