The Dallas Cowboys are searching for a new head coach, and of the names being floated for the job, there is one they should certainly stay away from.

The Dallas Cowboys announced Monday that they could not reach a contract extension agreement with Mike McCarthy.

With Mike McCarthy out, the Cowboys are looking for a new head coach to lead the most valuable sports franchise in the world.

Jason Witten played 16 seasons for the Dallas Cowboys from 2003 to 2019. He currently leads the Cowboys in career receptions and receiving yards and has also started the most consecutive games at 229. He then retired and served as the head coach for Liberty Christian School in Argyle, Texas.

The move comes after McCarthy and the Cowboys missed the playoffs for the first time since his inaugural season in 2020.

The Dallas Cowboys’ search for a new head coach to replace Mike McCarthy is just now getting started. Kellen Moore joins Deion Sanders as early candidates.
