Hopefully, this is the start of a coaching resolution for the Dallas Cowboys.
After the Chicago Bears put in a request to interview Mike McCarthy on Monday afternoon, the Dallas Cowboys have denied the request a little over 24 hours later, according to a report from ESPN’s Adam Schefter.
While McCarthy’s contract with the team technically expires on Wednesday, the Cowboys will have until next Tuesday, Jan. 14, to exclusively negotiate a potential deal with the head coach of the Cowboys for the last five seasons. When Jan. 14 arrives, McCarthy will be free to interview with any team across the NFL without permission from Dallas.
