Dallas Cowboys fire offensive line coach Paul Alexander, promote Marc Colombo

The Dallas Cowboys are making more changes.

First-year offensive line coach Paul Alexander has been fired, the team announced Monday. Former Cowboys offensive lineman and current assistant Marc Colombo will move into the role.

Additionally, the team has hired Hudson Houck, a longtime offensive line coach for several NFL teams including Dallas, who will work with Colombo and the offensive staff in an advisory capacity.

"While approaching the midpoint of the season, and going through an overall evaluation of our entire operation during the bye week, we felt that this move would serve the best interests of our team moving forward," head coach Jason Garrett said in a statement.
