"FRISCO, Texas - It's been nine days since the Cowboys released defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus, and the search is continuing for Dallas' fourth defensive coordinator in as many years. Up to this point, the Cowboys have/will interview nine candidates for the position. On Thursday, Cowboys COO/co-owner Stephen Jones discussed where the team is at in the process. Jones added that he feels all the candidates that the team has interviewed are qualified for the position,"
""I think we're in the initial run," Jones said. "We're going to cast a wide net, whether it's half a dozen, ten, 12 coaches when it's all said and done. I don't know what that number will be, but then we'll narrow it down. We're already starting to narrow it down and we'll start to bring guys in for in-person interviews, some of the guys that we felt were the guys that would fit.""
The Cowboys released defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus nine days ago and are searching for their fourth defensive coordinator in as many years. The team has interviewed nine candidates so far and plans to cast a wide net, potentially interviewing up to a dozen coaches before narrowing the field. Leadership intends to begin in-person interviews for candidates who appear to fit the role. Team executives say all interviewed candidates are qualified, but multiple layers determine the best overall fit. Aaron Whitecotton will serve as defensive coordinator at the East-West Shrine Bowl and will showcase his play-calling after interviewing for the Cowboys' DC job. Lunda Wells will coach the West team at The Star.
