Cowboys' Jones praises McCarthy, won't commit to future role

ARLINGTON, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys' season came to an end with a 23-19 loss to the Washington Commanders Sunday, and now comes the challenging part.

Does owner and general manager Jerry Jones retain Mike McCarthy, whose contract expires Wednesday, or does he begin a search for his ninth head coach since he purchased the team in 1989?

For more than 40 minutes, Jones spoke to the media outside the locker room, speaking glowingly about McCarthy, but never fully committed to him for 2025 and beyond.

"I don't know that I am considering making a change is really what I'm trying to say," Jones said.
