Texas Longhorns quarterback Quinn Ewers is one of the most uncertain prospects in the upcoming draft class. After an <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ncaa">NCAA</a> season hindered by injuries, Ewers enters the NFL Combine as a major candidate to rise or drop in the rankings. Ahead of the workouts in Indianapolis, Ewers received counseling from a Super Bowl-winning head coach.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/quinn-ewers">Quinn Ewers</a> had a rollercoaster season with the Longhorns in 2024, central to both big wins and tough losses. Arch Manning’s presence on campus and behind Ewers on the depth chart placed Ewers’ every move under scrutiny, with fans calling for the backup whenever things went south.



However, Ewers finished the season on a higher note after a clutch finish during the College Football Playoff quarterfinals against Arizona State. Yet, his performance against the Ohio State Buckeyes wasn’t the ideal end to his <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/college-football">college football</a> career. Ewers’ most memorable play in that game was a fumble that Ohio State’s Jack Sawyer scooped and scored for the game-sealing touchdown.



Now, as Ewers shifts his focus to the next chapter of his career, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/texas-longhorns">Longhorns</a>‘ prospect has been training under the guidance of a Super Bowl champion head coach, hoping to gain the tools to thrive in the NFL.

“Ewers has actually been working down in Texas with former Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy, who I talked to on the phone yesterday” insider Tom Pelissero stated, via NFL Network. “McCarthy said he’s just been really impressed with Quinn Ewers as a young man and the attentiveness that he has. They’ve been talking football for hours.”

<h2>Possible reunion?</h2>



Mike McCarthy, who coached the Green Bay Packers to victory in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> XLV, was fired by the Dallas Cowboys after the 2024 NFL season, and is now without a job. Despite being among the most sought after coaches in the market, McCarthy has apparently made a firm decision on his future.



“Former Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy has decided to focus on the 2026 hiring cycle and will not coach in the NFL this season,” Ian Rapoport reported. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">McCarthy</a> turned down offers from the New Orleans Saints, and will wait until next year’s hiring cycle.

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a> has already secured a new head coach for the Dallas Cowboys ahead of the upcoming season, but new details continue to emerge about Mike McCarthy’s surprising departure. It appears one of the key factors was McCarthy’s request for a contract extension, which Jones rejected with a lower counteroffer.



According to Todd Archer, the former <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a> head coach requested a five-year extension to re-sign with the team, but owner Jerry Jones countered with just a three-year offer. Had McCarthy agreed to the deal he wanted, he would have remained in Dallas through 2029.



It’s worth noting that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a> had an approximate salary of $8 million with the franchise, one of the highest among head coaches for ‘big’ teams like the Cowboys. According to Archer’s data, the head coach was the 11th highest-paid in the NFL.



The Cowboys had McCarthy from 2020 to 2024, marking the second-largest contract of his career after leaving Green Bay, where he won a Super Bowl but unfortunately couldn’t lead the Dallas franchise to the big game.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-full"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="677" height="467" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20250203_BUS_326868_image-2_704d8a4a.webp&amp;width=677&amp;height=467" alt="" class="wp-image-326883" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/02193121/image-2.png 677w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2025/02/02193121/image-2-300x207.png 300w" sizes="(max-width: 677px) 100vw, 677px"></figure></figure>



<h2>The Cowboys with McCarthy</h2>



As most know, during McCarthy’s tenure as head coach in Dallas, the franchise reached the postseason three times. The furthest they got was the divisional round in 2022, where they lost to the 49ers, 19-12. The other two occasions saw them eliminated in the Wild Card games.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/quarterbacks-with-the-most-super-bowl-rings"></div>


<h2>McCarthy’s Uncertain Future</h2>



As of now, it’s unclear what position McCarthy will take for the 2025 season. It’s worth remembering that after leaving Green Bay in 2018, he spent an entire year without a job in the league. Notably, in January, Adam Schefter reported that both the Saints and Bears were interested in hiring him at that time, but it never materialized.

Jerry Jones' counteroffer may have been the tipping point in Mike McCarthy's exit from Cowboys

Mike McCarthy couldn’t achieve his big goal of winning the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/super-bowl">Super Bowl</a> with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas Cowboys</a>. Despite three years (2021-2023) with at least 12 regular-season wins, playoff failures put him on the hot seat in 2024.



With high expectations, injuries suddenly hit a roster that lacked the depth to sustain itself. Throughout last season, names like <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a>, Micah Parsons, DaRon Bland, Brandin Cooks, and Trevon Diggs were all sidelined at some point. The team simply couldn’t overcome that. 



For this reason, Jerry Jones did not extend McCarthy’s contract with the Cowboys, and one of the big uncertainties in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> is what will happen with the future of the head coach. It seems there is already a definitive answer.



<h2>What team is Mike McCarthy with now?</h2>



Mike McCarthy will not have a team for the 2025 NFL season. According to a report by Tom Pelissero, the head coach will not seek to be hired by the New Orleans Saints and prefers to wait for a more attractive opportunity in 2026.


 

 


“Former Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy has decided to focus on the 2026 hiring cycle and will not coach in the NFL this season, source tell me and Ian Rapoport. McCarthy, who has made the playoffs 12 times in 18 seasons, is expected to be a strong candidate a year from now.”

<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a> left the Dallas Cowboys after owner Jerry Jones‘ franchise declined to offer him an extension when his contract expired at the end of last year. After a disappointing 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season in which America’s Team failed to make the playoffs when it was expected to be a Super Bowl contender, the 61-year-old coach is in talks with another team in the league.



Many teams are looking for a coach after the last season. Many of them have already confirmed the hiring of profiles for the position, such as the Chicago Bears or the New York Jets. However, other franchises are still searching and McCarthy’s name is on the radar following his exit from the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a>.



After five seasons in Dallas, McCarthy appears ready for a new destination other than <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jones</a>‘ Cowboys. Although there are no concrete terms or confirmations at this time, an NFL team has agreed to have talks to see if a project can be put in place.



<h2>NFL team interested in Mike McCarthy</h2>



The team that is interested in McCarthy and has scheduled an interview with him for their head coaching position is the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/new-orleans-saints">New Orleans Saints</a>. The franchise, which has running back Alvin Kamara as its star player, has had to postpone all of its meetings with candidates for the position, including the former Cowboys coach, due to the bad weather.

McCarthy and the Saints will have an interview next week. The dialogue is a step toward becoming New Orleans’ new head coach, although much remains to be worked out. The information was posted by NFL insider Adam Schefter on his X account (formerly Twitter).

<h2>Other Saints HC candidates</h2>



McCarthy is not alone in the race to be the Saints’ new head coach. Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver and New York Giants offensive coordinator Mike Kafka will also have interviews over the weekend after the search process was postponed due to the snowstorm that hit New Orleans..

After many days of doubt, Mike McCarthy is finally out of the Dallas Cowboys head coaching position after ending his contract in the final of the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a> is one of the key players of The America’s Team and broke his silence to share his toughs about the situation.



The relationship between Parsons and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">McCarthy</a> had ups and downs throughout the year, with some blunt statements from the linebacker about McCarthy’s driving, when he said that “Mike can leave and go wherever he wants. It’s above my pay grade whether he comes back to coach next year or not”.



However, some time later, with the season ending in disappointment for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a>, Parsons’ opinion no longer seems so bereft. As it turns out, the Dallas franchise figure sent a clear message to express that he is concerned about the coaching change.



<h2>Parsons broke silence on McCarthy exit</h2>



“It is devastating. It’s gonna be a complete reset. Obviously I’m very sad about the relationship we had with Coach McCarthy and all he’s done for our team. He’s a great father, a great coach. One of the winningest coaches. He’s always been good to us as a team. His loss hurts”, declared Parsons in The Edge with Micah Parsons podcast, remembering McCarthy, his only career coach.

<h2>Who will replace Mike McCarthy at the Cowboys?</h2>



The dance of names to be the new head coach of the Cowboys had already begun during the regular season that ended a few days ago. However, now that the final decision on McCarthy’s future has been made, there are no longer distant rumors, but certain searches.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-kellen-moore-breaks-silence-on-rumors-about-hc-role-to-cowboys-owner-jerry-jones"></div>

 

 


Deion Sanders seems to be one of the most coveted to be the new HC of Dallas, but his arrival is complex. In addition, the interest of the franchise of Jerry Jones in the former coach of the New York Jets Robert Saleh was revealed in the last hours. At the same time, the franchise is reportedly interested in former Cowboys players Kellen Moore and Jason Witten.



<h2>Micah Parsons’ special contract situation with the Cowboys</h2>



Parsons is in a special position with Dallas because of his potential new contract. The 25-year-old linebacker has made it clear that he is invested in his team’s well-being and is willing to play with a team option worth $24 million in 2025 in order to keep the Cowboys’ star players from getting cut. There is no word on a possible extension at this time.

After a disappointing 7-10 campaign that left the Dallas Cowboys out of the Wild Card race and eighth in the NFC, the NFL organization announced that Mike McCarthy will not return as head coach next season. Cowboys owner and general manager <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a> issued a statement addressing the decision and the reasoning behind it.



The split reportedly stemmed from the inability to reach an agreement on a long-term contract, with McCarthy now expected to explore other opportunities, according to NFL Network. 



Jerry Jones expressed his appreciation for McCarthy’s contributions: “Throughout <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy’s</a> tenure here, including the last several weeks, I have been very complimentary of the job he has done. That has applied to our record over that time period, our team unity and culture, Mike’s qualifications and track record of success, and on a personal level as a tremendous human being,” said Jones.



“I have great respect for Mike, and he has led the team through some very unique and challenging times during his tenure. Over the past week, Mike and I had the opportunity to conduct a joint review of all aspects of the past season, our players and staff, and also spent considerable time discussing the road forward for the team,” Jones added.

Despite these discussions, both parties ultimately agreed it was best to move in different directions. Jones concluded: “Prior to reaching the point of contract negotiations, though, it became mutually clear that it would be better for each of us to head in a different direction. I thank Mike and wish him, his wife Jessica, and their family the best. They have been a wonderful part of our community here. We will commence a search process immediately to hire the next head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.”

<h2>Mike’s legacy with the Cowboys</h2>



During McCarthy’s five-season tenure, the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a> posted a 49-35 record, reaching the playoffs three times (2021, 2022, 2023). However, the team managed only one postseason victory, a decisive 31-14 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2022. After posting a 12-5 record in each of those three playoff seasons, Dallas stumbled to a 7-10 mark in 2024, marking McCarthy’s final year at the helm.



<h2>The profile of the next Dallas Cowboys head coach</h2>



As Jerry Jones and the Cowboys’ front office begin their search for a new head coach, the decision carries enormous implications for a franchise with one of the most passionate fanbases in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a>. Dallas must decide between pursuing a seasoned leader with a proven playoff pedigree or embracing fresh, innovative coaching talent to reinvigorate the team.



A proven leader with playoff experience would bring stability, experience, and credibility. Candidates like Brian Flores, known for his defensive expertise and leadership during his tenure with the Miami Dolphins, or Kliff Kingsbury, who offers offensive ingenuity and a background in high-octane systems, could fit the bill. These seasoned coaches provide a vision for navigating the pressures of playoff football and building a sustainable culture of success.



On the other hand, the Cowboys might consider hiring a younger, up-and-coming coach with a fresh perspective. Rising stars like Ben Johnson, one of the league’s brightest offensive minds, or Aaron Glenn, a respected defensive coordinator with a knack for player development, could inject new energy and creativity into the organization. This approach would signify a commitment to modernizing the team’s schemes and fully leveraging the talent already on the roster.

The season in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> undoubtedly fell short of expectations for the Dallas Cowboys, and many attribute it to the poor decisions made by head coach Mike McCarthy. With the main goal of steering the franchise in the right direction next season, Jerry Jones has already made a decision regarding the future of the HC.


 


According to NFL insider Tom Pelissero, via his X (formerly Twitter) account, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a> will not continue as the head coach of the Cowboys&nbsp;next&nbsp;season as the parties couldn’t reach an agreement on a contract extension.



“Sources: Mike McCarthy is out as #Cowboys coach. The sides couldn’t agree on length of contract and McCarthy will pursue other opportunities. He leaves Dallas with a winning record and three playoff appearances.”


 


Mike McCarthy joined the franchise in 2020, coming from the Green Bay Packers. While he wasn’t able to reach a Super Bowl, his biggest achievement as head coach of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a> was leading the team to the playoffs three times.

<h2>Who could be the new HC of the Cowboys?</h2>



The fact that <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a> has decided not to renew McCarthy’s contract opens the door for several talented coaches to become contenders for this coveted position.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/college-football/ncaaf-star-lets-jerry-jones-know-he-wants-to-play-for-dak-prescotts-cowboys"></div>


According to NFL insider Jon Machota, via his X (formerly Twitter) account @jonmachota, there is a preliminary list of candidates, including some with vast experience, such as Pete Carroll, Jon Gruden, and Ron Rivera.



This is the list published by the journalist with the candidates to take over McCarthy’s position as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys:



<ul><li>Ben Johnson</li><li>Kliff Kingsbury</li><li>Brian Flores</li><li>Aaron Glenn</li><li>Joe Brady</li><li>Liam Coen</li><li>Kellen Moore</li><li>Pete Carroll</li><li>Jon Gruden</li><li>Ron Rivera</li></ul>



<h2>The likely destination of Mike McCarthy</h2>



The end of the season for the Cowboys undoubtedly brought one of the most notable news in a long time. Finally, the experienced coach Mike McCarthy will not continue as the head of the first team, and now it remains to be seen where the former Green Bay Packers coach will continue his journey.



Many franchises have opted to change coaches in recent weeks, and several have yet to confirm anyone for that position. For this reason, it’s likely that McCarthy will find a new team sooner rather than later.



According to journalist Ian Rapoport via his X account @RapSheet, two teams are seriously interested in the services of the head coach: “The #Cowboys and coach Mike McCarthy appear to be over. Saints and Bears have interest.”

NFL News: Jerry Jones makes final decision on Mike McCarthy's future as Cowboys HC

The last defeat against the Washington Commanders was a true reflection of what the entire <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season was like for the Dallas Cowboys. Intermittent, at times fierce, but directionless in terms of performance. Many attributed it to serious injuries, while others pointed to the lack of answers from Mike McCarthy. The truth is, his future next season remains uncertain, although he has already made his intentions clear.


 


It’s been several days since his potential continuation or cessation of his activities in <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas</a> has been questioned. After the game against the Commanders, it was the head coach himself who, when asked by the press if he is willing to return next season, gave a decisive response: “Absolutely. I have a lot invested here, and the Cowboys have a lot invested in me,” McCarthy said, via a transcription from the team.



“And then there’s a personal side to all these decisions. They all point the right direction. I think anytime you invest your time, energy, your belief, the connection you have, the relationships that are in place here, the understanding of what the organization can do and is willing to do. Those are all positive attributes that you take into account.



“But you know, absolutely, I’m a builder. I believe in building programs. I believe in developing young players. So, at the end of day, it is about winning and you have to have those components in place to get this thing where it needs to be. I think we have a very good foundation here,” he finally concluded.

<h2>McCarthy is confident in turning the situation around</h2>



The current season ended with a negative record of 7-10, breaking a three-season streak of 12 consecutive wins. For this reason, the coach stated that he feels confident about improving this poor campaign, that is, if he is allowed to.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/chiefs-hc-andy-reid-could-lose-an-important-member-of-his-staff-for-the-upcoming-nfl-season"></div>


“I have a lot of confidence in myself as a head coach,” <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">McCarthy</a> said. “I think like anything, body of work, you know the statistics, I think it’s more about the program, the details of what needs to get done. How can we get better? All those things go into these decisions of whether you originally get the job or continue to move forward. I’m definitely in position with Jerry to move the program forward. There’s no question about that in my mind. That’s why these conversations need to happen here in the near future.”



<h2>What decision will Jerry Jones make?</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a>‘ figure in the Cowboys’ world may be one of the most influential in the entire franchise. The boss of Dallas has a decision to make, and after the Commanders’ game, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-jerry-jones-confirms-if-cowboys-are-ready-to-fire-mike-mccarthy">he addressed the possibility of firing HC Mike McCarthy.</a>


 


“I don’t know that I am considering making a change. It’s really what I’m trying to say. Anything is possible. Mike is one of the best coaches that I think there is. He was made the coach here because I thought that and he has done absolutely nothing to diminish my opinion of him as a coach. I always provide the roster for the coaches. If you don’t get there, then you always got some second-guessing. Yes, I second-guess myself all the time. We make a lot of decisions. Some of them don’t work out as good as others.”

NFL News: Mike McCarthy makes something clear about his future with the Dallas Cowboys

Sunday could be <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a>‘s last game at the helm of the Dallas Cowboys, as the head coach of America’s Team will be out of contract at the end of the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> regular season and owner Jerry Jones’ organization will decide whether to extend the deal or look for another profile.



After the game against the Washington Commanders, a chaotic campaign will come to an end for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a>, who have had to deal with multiple injuries such as Dak Prescott’s, which have directly impacted their results. Expectations of reaching the Super Bowl faded quickly and the season ends without Dallas in the playoffs.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jones</a> has stated on more than one occasion that he appreciates the work McCarthy has done this season, but the Cowboys head coach sent out a strong statement that could make it clear that his future may not be tied to the Dallas franchise.



<h2>McCarthy’s strong admission about his possible last game with the Cowboys</h2>



“I go to the stadium much earlier this time in my career than I used to. I won a Super Bowl in that home locker room at AT&amp;T Stadium. I have a very strong emotional attachment that it hits me every time I walk in there and every time I walk out. So, yeah, I’m definitely aware of it,” McCarthy said in an interview with TheAthletic.com.

<h2>Will McCarthy continue with the Dallas Cowboys?</h2>



McCarthy’s nostalgic words suggest that continuity is unlikely. His situation is the same as that of the entire Cowboys coaching staff, whose contracts expire after the current season. Jones and the rest of the Dallas organization will take the time to think about a decision in the next few days. Even though the outlook is uncertain.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/jerry-jones-net-worth"></div>

 

 


<h2>McCarthy’s tenure as Cowboys coach</h2>



The game against the Commanders could be McCarthy’s last in Dallas. The 61-year-old head coach has a 49-34 record in five seasons with the Cowboys and has at least 12 wins in three straight campaigns between 2021 and 2023. However, his big debt was the playoffs, an instance in which he has a 1-3 record.

As if the Dallas Cowboys‘ season wasn’t troubling enough, they now have to deal with the departure of a standout player in the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season. It is proven that owner <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a>‘ franchise has a lot to sort out for next year, including the continuity of head coach Mike McCarthy.



Last week, Dallas confirmed the departure of CeeDee Lamb until next year, confirming that injuries were a constant problem for a team that lost Dak Prescott, its star quarterback, in the middle of the current campaign. Now, however, a controversial situation surrounds a new departure for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a>.



Dallas will close out the regular season when they take on the Washington Commanders this Sunday afternoon in what will be the final chapter of a long and difficult campaign. What started as an expectation of winning the Super Bowl turned into a disappointment without even making the playoffs. With that in mind, the rebuilding began.



<h2>Significant player for the Cowboys who was cut</h2>



Jerry Jones and <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a>‘s Cowboys have decided to waive running back Ezekiel Elliott. The controversial part of the situation has to do with the fact that the 29-year-old had requested a release. This is the second time in one year that the former All-Pro has been cut in Dallas.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20241231_BUS_304311_Elliott-1024x576_3ae20ba3.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Ezekiel Elliott" class="wp-image-304355" srcset="https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-300x169.jpg 300w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-768x432.jpg 768w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-740x416.jpg 740w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-490x275.jpg 490w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott-250x140.jpg 250w, https://images.futbolsites.net/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/12/31184241/Elliott.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Ezekiel Elliott of the Dallas Cowboys</figcaption></figure>



Elliott was previously cut by the Cowboys in 2023 before a brief stint with the New England Patriots. For this season, the now former Dallas running back returned to the team in a second period that had a disappointing outcome.


 

 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/jerry-jones-net-worth"></div>

 


<h2>Elliott’s numbers at the Cowboys</h2>



Elliott began his time with Jones’ Cowboys in 2016, in a first cycle in which he played 103 games and rushed for 8262 yards, contributing 68 touchdowns. During that time, he was part of an All-Pro team and was a three-time Pro Bowl performer. After being cut, Mike McCarthy gave the go-ahead to have him back for the current campaign, in which he played 15 games (only two from the start) with 74 attempts for only 226 yards and three touchdowns contributed.



<h2>What will happen to the future of Elliott’s career?</h2>



Elliott is free and available to sign with any team that needs his contribution at running back, with the goal of rediscovering his best version. It is very unlikely, almost impossible, that a franchise will consider him as a postseason addition, so his new destination will appear in the 2025 NFL season.

This was not just any defeat. Losing in such a manner, to a divisional rival like the Philadelphia Eagles, could mark a turning point in the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season for the Dallas Cowboys. However, despite the tough circumstances they have faced in recent weeks, Mike McCarthy‘s team, the coach made a firm statement regarding his future in the position.


 


After the game, where Nick Sirianni’s team defeated the Cowboys 41-7 at Lincoln Financial Field, it was <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">McCarthy</a> himself who faced the reporters in the press conference and made it clear that he will finish the season in the most professional manner possible.



“I’m here to finish the race. That’s my mindset and that the team’s mindset,” the former Super Bowl champion with the Packers stated, making it clear that he will not be leaving the franchise led by <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a> at this time.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Dallas</a> will close out their regular season next Sunday, January 5, when they host the already-clinched Washington Commanders led by Jayden Daniels, who have had a stellar performance this year in the NFL.

<h2>Micah Parsons is confident in turning the situation around next year</h2>



One of the major factors why the Dallas Cowboys have unfortunately struggled to maintain consistency throughout the season has undoubtedly been the quantity and severity of the injuries that have affected them.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-legend-thinks-andy-reid-patrick-mahomes-and-chiefs-wont-win-third-consecutive-super-bowl"></div>


<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/micah-parsons">Micah Parsons</a>, one of the key figures on the team who managed to recover from an injury during the season, knows that one of the keys to turning the situation around next season will be keeping the roster as healthy as possible.



“One, we’re gonna have to get healthy. I mean, we got 3 or 4 starters who aren’t coming back until mid next season. We got to plan for that. We got to get healthy. We got to keep coming together,” stated Parsons via Jon Machota.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20241230_BUS_303264_Micah-Parsons-6-1024x576_74862556.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Micah Parsons Dallas Cowboys" class="wp-image-279956" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-740x416.jpg 740w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-490x275.jpg 490w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6-250x140.jpg 250w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/11/Micah-Parsons-6.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Micah Parsons #11 of the Dallas Cowboys warms up prior to the game against the Philadelphia Eagles at AT&amp;T Stadium on November 10, 2024 in Arlington, Texas.</figcaption></figure>



<h2>Prescott’s thoughts after a difficult season</h2>



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott">Dak Prescott</a> is the franchise player for the Cowboys and, after a serious injury, he had to undergo surgery that forced him to miss the rest of the season. Frustrated by the situation his team is in, <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-dak-prescott-sends-clear-message-to-jerry-jones-about-cowboys-losing-season-and-future-of-mike-mccarthy">he sent a clear message to Jerry Jones about the Cowboys’ losing season and the future of Mike McCarthy.</a>



“Nobody plans to lose. Nobody plans to have a losing season and to be in this position. You expect the playoffs every year. You expect to win this division and then to be in this place or whether it’s at home, playing against this team usually for the division. That’s not the casar. It sucks. It’s frustrating,” Prescott stated.


 


Additionally, he referred to the situation of the current head coach, McCarthy: “Obviously, I’m a promoter of bringing him back. It’s tough to probably get your job done and do your job with all that hanging over your head, but credit to him. Credit to his professionalism and really his coach’s style of being able to get guys being ready to play and go out there and finish and take pride in what we finish and what we put on tape.”

Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy makes something clear after tough loss to Eagles

NFL News: Cowboys HC Mike McCarthy makes something clear after tough loss to Eagles - Bolavip US

The Dallas Cowboys 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season continues to be a long stretch of bad news. In the face of constant doubts about his continuity, head coach Mike McCarthy must now face a tough update related to the injury to wide receiver <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/ceedee-lamb">CeeDee Lamb</a>.



What appeared to be a campaign in which the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a> had their sights set on the Super Bowl has turned into a series of unfortunate events. First, the season was marred by the season-ending injury to star Dak Prescott, but the key absences continue affecting the team that is out of the playoffs.



<a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">McCarthy</a>‘s contract is up at the end of the year, so even in what could be his final games, he won’t be able to use the lineup he wants. Throughout the year, the Cowboys head coach has had to deal with a number of sensitive losses in his roster. In this case, related to Lamb, Dallas made a final announcement.



<h2>Cowboys’ final update on CeeDee Lamb’s injury</h2>



The update on Lamb’s injury indicates that the Cowboys wide receiver’s season is over. “Additional tests and scans performed this week on CeeDee Lamb’s shoulder have determined that his injury has progressed to the point that he will be lost for the remaining two games of the season,” the Dallas franchise said in a statement.

<h2>Injuries continue to be a problem for the Cowboys</h2>



The question will remain as to what the Cowboys’ season would have been like without so many injuries, but the truth is that the team that took the field in Week 1 of the 2024 NFL season is very different from the one that will finish the current campaign. Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb, Zack Martin, DeMarvion Overshown, DeMarcus Lawrence, and Trevon Diggs are the starters from the first game who saw their year end early due to injury.

The continuity of <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a> in the Dallas Cowboys is one of the most debated topics in the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season. After Jerry Jones‘ statements on the subject, the head coach of the America’s Team has made it clear what his opinion is when it comes to talking about his future.



McCarthy’s contract at the front of the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a> expires at the end of the current campaign, so a final decision will be made in the next few days. With the season in play, the issue has become increasingly controversial and names have even been mentioned as possible replacements for the Dallas head coach.



Yesterday <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl/nfl-news-cowboys-owner-jerry-jones-confirms-when-he-will-make-a-final-decision-on-mike-mccarthys-future">Jerry Jones confirmed when he will make a decision on McCarthy’s future</a>. “All I can say is what a good job, how good a job he’s doing. I don’t have thoughts that I would share as to anything about what we do after we’re through playing this year. We’ll decide after that,” <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jones</a> declared to the Associated Press. Today, the Cowboys head coach sent his response to those comments.



<h2>McCarthy’s final statement on his future with the Cowboys</h2>



“I do believe in time and place, and this is not the time or the place for me to speak about my continuity. Really, my focus is more about the staff. Their concern is higher for me, because change is something that happens in our league all the time. It’s part of this industry. And I understand it,” McCarthy declared to ESPN, reflecting on the possibility of remaining head coach of the Cowboys next season.

“I am at a different point in my life. I’m more focused on them, and I know that the best way to help everybody is to take care of what’s in front of us. And that’s why I think it benefits everybody for me just to stay on course,” McCarthy sentenced.

<h2>What are the Cowboys’ last two games in the 2024 NFL regular season?</h2>



The Cowboys are out of playoff contention for the current season and hope to complete the schedule when they face the Philadelphia Eagles and Washington Commanders. According to Jones, after these two games the Dallas organization will make a decision on McCarthy’s future.

Are the Dallas Cowboys eliminated from the playoffs?

NFL News: Mike McCarthy makes a final statement about his future in the Jerry Jones' Cowboys - Bolavip US

Eliminated from the playoffs for the 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl">NFL</a> season, the Dallas Cowboys have already begun the process of building for next year. Last season was frustrating considering owner Jerry Jones‘ franchise was on the verge of winning a Super Bowl, but the injury to star Dak Prescott and a series of other setbacks were serious problems for <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy">Mike McCarthy</a>‘s team.



With two weeks left in the regular season, all eyes are on McCarthy, whose contract as head coach of the Cowboys expires at the end of this campaign. As if that were not enough, names have already been mentioned to replace him, so the alternatives are multiple. <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/jerry-jones">Jerry Jones</a> will have the final say.



Piling up wins is the best thing that could happen for McCarthy if he wants to stay with the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys">Cowboys</a>, who are 7-8 and have won four of their last five games. However, with poor results throughout the year, it remains to be seen what parameters the Dallas organization will use to decide who will be the head coach.



<h2>When will the Cowboys make a decision on McCarthy?</h2>



Jerry Jones spoke about McCarthy following the Cowboys’ win over Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 16 of the 2024 NFL season. “All I can say is what a good job, how good a job he’s doing. I don’t have thoughts that I would share as to anything about what we do after we’re through playing this year. We’ll decide after that,” Jones confirmed to the Associated Press about the Dallas head coach’s future.

“I’m proud of those guys. They wouldn’t give it up out there. So I’m real, real proud of them. And Mike McCarthy, he just won’t let them not think they’re playing for the Super Bowl out there. He won’t let them do it. So proud of that,” sentenced Jones about the team’s currently situation.

<h2>How long has it been since the Cowboys last appeared in the Super Bowl?</h2>



The pressure on America’s Team is due to a long list of years without reaching the NFL’s Super Bowl. The last time the Dallas franchise advanced to the Super Bowl was in 1995, when it defeated the Pittsburgh Steelers. Nearly 30 years later, the question is whether Jones trusts McCarthy to break that long bowl streak.

Brandon Aubrey has been a standout player for the <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dallas-cowboys" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dallas Cowboys</a>. In Week 15, head coach <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/mike-mccarthy" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mike McCarthy</a> tested him with a 70-yard field goal attempt, which he missed, and now the coach has shared a brutally honest take on the attempt.



The 2024 <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/nfl" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">NFL</a> season has been challenging for the Cowboys. Initially viewed as contenders in the NFC East, their lofty expectations quickly diminished after a disappointing start to the campaign.



Their struggles deepened when <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/dak-prescott" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Dak Prescott</a> was sidelined midseason with a hamstring injury. Despite this setback, the Cowboys still have a slim chance of making the playoffs, which would surprise many given their tumultuous season.



<h2>Mike McCarthy gets real on Brandon Aubrey’s 70-yard field goal attempt</h2>



Even with Dak Prescott’s season-ending injury, the Cowboys remain in the hunt for a playoff spot. Although their chances are very low, they’re not entirely out of contention.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-micah-parsons-sends-clear-message-to-jerry-jones-about-trade-to-get-him-out-of-cowboys"></div>


In Week 15, the Cowboys secured an impressive 30-14 road win against the Carolina Panthers. The Lone Star franchise delivered a complete performance, with the offense stepping up to dominate the game.



However, the victory wasn’t solely due to Cooper Rush and the offense. The special teams contributed significantly, adding 12 points, thanks to Brandon Aubrey’s stellar performance at Bank of America Stadium.



Aubrey went 3-for-4 on field goals for the Cowboys, with his only miss coming from a bold 70-yard attempt. Mike McCarthy placed his faith in his kicker, confident in his ability to pull it off. Now, the head coach has spoken candidly about Aubrey’s effort and whether he would let him try such a long-distance kick again.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><figure class="image"><img loading="lazy" width="1024" height="576" src="https://ds-images.bolavip.com/news/image?src=https://images.bolavip.com/webp/en/full/BUS_20241218_BUS_295263_Brandon-Aubrey-kicker-of-the-Dallas-Cowboys-1024x576_cadd6d06.webp&amp;width=1024&amp;height=576" alt="Brandon Aubrey, kicker of the Dallas Cowboys" class="wp-image-115319" srcset="https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Brandon-Aubrey-kicker-of-the-Dallas-Cowboys-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Brandon-Aubrey-kicker-of-the-Dallas-Cowboys-300x169.jpg 300w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Brandon-Aubrey-kicker-of-the-Dallas-Cowboys-768x432.jpg 768w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Brandon-Aubrey-kicker-of-the-Dallas-Cowboys-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https://bolavip-us.cms.futbolsitesnetwork.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/10/2024/03/Brandon-Aubrey-kicker-of-the-Dallas-Cowboys.jpg 1920w" sizes="(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px"></figure><figcaption>Brandon Aubrey, kicker for the Dallas Cowboys</figcaption></figure>



“I wish we were indoors,” McCarthy said on Aubrey’s attempt. “I wish he would have had a real chance at it. I was scared to death when the returner caught the ball because I’ve been on the other side of that before so, 2005 in Chicago if you want to look it up. Right before the half. Last play of the half. He’s earned that opportunity. He does that on a regular basis. He’s so impressive with his consistency from that distance, so I obviously had the confidence that he could get it done. I know we got a little nervous there at the end because the wind, it wasn’t enough to make a decision on the direction in the fourth quarter. There was a little more wind going to our left, which would have been to the south than going to north. But hey, we gave it a shot.”



<h2>What is the record for the longest field goal in NFL history?</h2>



The longest field goal in NFL history is 66 yards, set by Justin Tucker of the Baltimore Ravens on September 26, 2021. Tucker’s kick came during a game against the Detroit Lions and was the game-winner as time expired, securing a 19-17 victory for the Ravens.


 <div class="wp_fsn_relatedlinks" id="BUS#/nfl/nfl-news-cowboys-make-final-decision-about-blockbuster-trade-for-micah-parsons"></div>


This remarkable feat broke the previous record of 64 yards, which had been held by Matt Prater since 2013. Tucker’s kick not only showcased his incredible leg strength but also solidified his reputation as one of the greatest kickers in NFL history.
