Mike McCarthy Focuses on Staff’s Future Amid Contract Uncertainty

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is shifting his attention towards the future of his staff rather than his own contract status, which is set to expire at the end of the season. With owner Jerry Jones expressing interest in keeping him on, a resolution seems uncertain.

Jones has praised McCarthy’s job performance, particularly during the team’s recent winning streak. “I can’t tell you how proud I am of the way the coaching staff, led by Mike McCarthy,” Jones said. The coach, however, remains tight-lipped about his own future, citing a need to focus on the present.

“I do believe in time and place, and this is not the time or the place for me to speak on it,” McCarthy said. His primary concern is ensuring stability and continuity for the coaching staff, which he believes will benefit everyone involved. The Cowboys close out the season against the Eagles and Commanders.
