Dallas Cowboys to Interview Former Coordinator for Head Coaching Job

 

DALLAS, TX— The Dallas Cowboys have contacted two more coaches for the head coaching position.

It has been reported that the Cowboys have submitted a request to interview current Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who played and coached for the Cowboys. The Eagles ranked eighth in yards per game on offensive this year, and running back Saquon Barkley had a 2,000-yard season.

This was probably inevitable as Moore’s name was kicked around when the Cowboys moved on from Jason Garrett and before they hired Mike McCarthy. While fans might not like it, Moore did a decent job as offensive coordinator in Dallas.

Adam Schefter has reported that Moore’s interview will take place ahead of the Eagles' matchup with the Los Angeles Rams.

It has been reported that the Cowboys have requested an interview with current Seattle Seahawks assistant head coach Leslie Frazier.

Like Robert Saleh, Frazier is a defensive-minded coach who has NFL head coaching experience as he was the head coach of the Minnesota Vikings from 2010 as an interim through 2013. In that time, the Vikings finished fourth in the NFC North three times. In 2012, the Vikings finished the season 10-6 and second in the division. Frazier went 21-32-1 over his time in Minnesota.

Don’t let that fool you as Frazier has had success as a defensive coordinator in the league. He was with the Buffalo Bills from 2017-2022 where he served as the defensive coordinator and assistant head coach.

Frazier has also won two Super Bowls, one as a player with the Chicago Bears, and the other as an assistant head coach and defensive backs coach with the Indianapolis Colts in 2007.

Being an assistant head coach and a successful defensive coordinator, Frazier does bring a resume. He has been in talks for other head coaching jobs around the NFL for several years.
