Marvin Lewis Discusses Cowboys Job Interview Amid Rooney Rule Criticism

Marvin Lewis didn't feel slighted by the Dallas Cowboys despite not getting the head coaching job.

The former Cincinnati Bengals coach was one of two men to interview for the position, satisfying the league's Rooney Rule to interview a minority candidate, before Mike McCarthy was hired. He told Golic and Wingo that he was fine with not being hired, but pointed out the problem in the NFL is larger than just this specific interview process.

"There's a lot bigger problems than myself out there," he said Wednesday, via ESPN.
