Cowboys opt for Schottenheimer as new head coach
The Dallas Cowboys have agreed terms with Brain Schottenheimer and will appoint him as their new head coach replacing Mike McCarthy, the team said on their website.
Schottenheimer worked as McCarthy's offensive coordinator for the past two seasons having joined the team in 2022 as coaching analyst.
The 51-year-old previously worked in assistant roles with Jacksonville, Seattle and the Indianapolis Colts after beginning his career with the then St.Louis Rams in 1997.
The Cowboys said Schottenheimer agreed to terms on Friday evening after two interviews earlier in the week.
The team will hold a press conference on Monday to formally announce the decision.
Schottenheimer is the son of the late Marty Schottenheimer, who was a coach in the NFL for 21 years working with the Cleveland Browns, the Kansas City Chiefs, Washington and San Diego.
The Cowboys endured a difficult and disappointing season ending with a 7-10 record.
McCarthy's contract was allowed to run out and the team had been linked with several coaches from outside the club including former player Deion Sanders.
