Dallas needs a new football coach and owner Jerry Jones is at least kicking the tires on Deion Sanders. After parting ways with Mike McCarthy following five seasons without a playoff run, owner Jerry Jones spoke with Sanders about the coaching opening. Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports was first to report the news, calling Coach Prime a “top candidate.”

DALLAS (AP) — Mike McCarthy is not returning as coach of the Dallas Cowboys, who are going on three decades since their last Super Bowl title, owner Jerry Jones said in a statement Monday. Jones said the organization and McCarthy mutually agreed to part ways. The team’s search for its next coach begins immediately, he says.

After the Dallas Cowboys let former head coach Mike McCarthy’s contract expire today, many began to speculate on who would get an interview for one of the most notorious roles in the NFL. Would it be former Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll?
