Nick Saban endorses Deion Sanders for Cowboys head coach

The Dallas Cowboys are in the midst of searching for their next head coach following Mike McCarthy's departure, with four candidates already interviewed. Among those discussed is Deion Sanders, currently head coach at Colorado, who received a notable endorsement from Nick Saban during a podcast appearance. Saban expressed his desire for Sanders to take over the Cowboys, highlighting Sanders' successful coaching record at both Colorado and Jackson State. Despite this, there are indications that the Cowboys may be considering other candidates, and Sanders himself hinted at remaining at Colorado. His tenure there has seen significant improvement, leading the team to a 9-4 record in 2024 after a challenging first season. Speculation continues about whether Sanders will stay at Colorado through his contract, which runs until 2027, amid ongoing interest from the NFL.
