With the Dallas Cowboys trending toward missing the playoffs this season, a coaching change is starting to feel like an inevitability.
According to ESPN's Dan Graziano, it would "surprise a lot of people" if the Cowboys were to bring back head coach Mike McCarthy, whose contract is set to expire at the conclusion of the 2024 season.
McCarthy is in the midst of his fifth season as head coach of the Cowboys, and while they entered 2024 having made three consecutive playoff appearances, a fourth straight trip to the postseason is unlikely amid a 3-6 start.
