Deion Sanders, a member of the Pro Football Hall of Fame and former Super Bowl champion, is reportedly in the running to become the next head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. The team’s contract with Mike McCarthy expired on Monday, leaving Jones and his coaching staff searching for a replacement. With five seasons of experience as a college head coach, Sanders has led Jackson State to a 27-6 record over three years and Colorado to a 13-12 mark in two seasons. Sanders’ motivation for joining the NFL is largely driven by an opportunity to coach his sons, Shedeur and Shilo, who are both eligible for the 2025 draft. The Cowboys will select their first pick at No. 12 in the upcoming draft, which may impact Sanders’ coaching aspirations.
