Besides the firing of Scott Linehan earlier this offseason, the Cowboys did make another coaching change when they let go of Doug Colman who was an assistant special teams coach. Today, they filled that open position with Carlos Polk.
Carlos Polk will join the Cowboys as an assistant special teams coach, replacing Doug Colman. Polk had a seven-year career in the NFL as a linebacker, including one season with the Cowboys (2008). He was a coaching intern with the Cowboys for a summer after his career ended. He served as the assistant special teams coach with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers from 2014-18.
