He replaces Mike McCarthy , who was 49-35 in the regular season and 1-3 in the postseason in five seasons .

The Cowboys interviewed Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore , former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh and Seattle Seahawks assistant head coach Leslie Frazier .

Jerry Jones is not a big fan of paying top money to coaches or having large staffs.

Jerry Jones hired Jerry Schottenheimer to replace McCarthy as head coach.

The Cowboys have a clear need at running back with Rico Dowdle set to hit free agency.

Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty would be a quick fix for the running game if he's available.

Missouri wide receiver Luther Burden III or Penn State tight end Tyler Warren could contribute immediately.
