The Dallas Cowboys, who finished their 2024 season, are reportedly continuing to explore options for their next head coach. Despite being mathematically eliminated from playoff contention and knowing their current contract is set to expire, the team has not made a decision on Mike McCarthy’s future. In fact, they declined an interview request from the Chicago Bears, which some interpret as a sign of leaning towards retaining McCarthy. However, The Athletic’s Dianna Russini suggests that behind-the-scenes work on potential new coaches is underway, indicating a possible “purgatory” period for the team as they weigh their options and navigate indecision.
