After meeting about other matters, the Cowboys and McCarthy talk about possible new deal.
The Dallas Cowboys and Mike McCarthy are setting the chessboard.
Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and McCarthy remain open to moving forward together, and the sides are expected to open talks Friday on a new contract to keep him in Dallas, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported, per sources informed of the situation.
The talks come after several days of discussions about the 2024 season and the future. McCarthy’s contract expires Tuesday, giving Dallas an exclusive negotiating window before the coach becomes a true free agent.
