Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has hinted at the possibility of head coach Mike McCarthy receiving a contract extension despite the team’s disappointing 4-7 record. Jones praised McCarthy’s credentials as a Super Bowl-winning coach and emphasized that decisions regarding the coaching staff will not be made until the end of the season. Despite reports of a potential coaching change, Jones has shown faith in McCarthy, who is in his fifth season with the Cowboys.
McCarthy’s future in Dallas has been uncertain due to the team’s struggles and the absence of injured quarterback Dak Prescott. However, Jones has not ruled out the possibility of McCarthy continuing as head coach. If a change is made, several notable options could be considered for the Cowboys job, including Bill Belichick, Mike Vrabel, and Ben Johnson.
The Cowboys face an uphill battle to make the playoffs with a 0.7% chance, according to ESPN. They have upcoming games against the New York Giants, Cincinnati Bengals, Carolina Panthers, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Philadelphia Eagles, and Washington Commanders before McCarthy’s fate is determined. Despite the team’s challenging season, Jones seems willing to give McCarthy a chance to turn things around and potentially lead the Cowboys to success in the future.
