While Jones mulls McCarthy's future, the NFL is conducting interviews that might affect the Cowboys' options if Jones goes that path. Dallas defensive coordinator Dan Quinn will have four head coaching interviews by the end of the week,
including Zoom meetings with the Carolina Panthers and Tennessee Titans on Wednesday, the Washington Commanders on Thursday, and the Los Angeles Chargers on Friday.
Dallas has released no other significant information about the coaching staff's future. Beyond Quinn's future, Jones' exit interviews with players before making a decision are important because they allow them to weigh in for McCarthy if they feel compelled and allow Jones to ask them about the coaching staff.
Dak Prescott has praised McCarthy, stating Sunday that McCarthy helped him improve this season. Others may follow.
Belichick conjecture will continue until Jones or the organization confirms. It could surpass Belichick. Jones has canceled his Tuesday radio appearance on the team's flagship station, a Cowboys season traditional. Jones' responsibilities stop after the Cowboys' season
although he has made de facto wrap-up visits in the past. No such event is expected Tuesday, prompting additional suspicion.
Jerry Jones runs his timeline how he pleases. If the first 24 hours are any indication, we may be waiting for answers.
