Report: Cowboys Won't Fire Jason Garrett During Season

Cowboys owner and general manager Jerry Jones and executive vice president Stephen Jones will allow coach Jason Garrett to finish the season, according to ESPN's Ed Werder.

A source told Werder that Garrett will not be fired during the season, regardless of its outcome.

Jones publicly criticized Garrett after the Cowboys' 13–9 loss to the Patriots last weekend. Garrett came under fire for opting for Brett Maher's fourth-quarter field goal with 6:09 remaining on the clock rather than driving for a potential game-tying touchdown on 4th-and-seven from the Patriots' 11-yard line.

After the game, Jones shared how he was displeased with the loss, and questions continued to swirl over Garrett's job security with Dallas.
