FRISCO, Texas -- The Dallas Cowboys are just in the early stages of their search to replace Mike McCarthy as head coach, but one name is already known: former Cowboys cornerback and current Colorado coach Deion Sanders.
A source said owner and general manager Jerry Jones and Sanders spoke Monday, and while an interview has not been set up, the two are expected to continue their dialogue. FOX Sports first reported the conversation between the two sides.
Sanders was linked to a Cowboys' job that was not even open in the fall.
Sanders just completed his second year at Colorado where he has posted a 13-12 record, including a 9-4 mark in 2024 in which the Buffalos had the Heisman Trophy winner in wide receiver/cornerback Travis Hunter.
