Deion Sanders Pursues NFL Coaching Opportunity With Cowboys

Rumors are swirling about Deion Sanders potentially becoming the next head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, following their decision to part ways with Mike McCarthy after a disappointing season. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has expressed interest in Sanders, who has previously stated he enjoys coaching at the collegiate level and has no immediate plans to leave Colorado. However, some believe Sanders would only consider the NFL if he could coach both of his sons, especially as Shedeur Sanders is projected to be drafted early. Hall of Famer Drew Pearson supports the idea of hiring Sanders, emphasizing his ability to build programs and connect with players. Conversely, former player Adam 'Pacman' Jones doubts Sanders will leave Colorado, suggesting he might be leveraging the Cowboys' interest for better support and resources at his current school. The Cowboys are also interviewing other candidates, including Kellen Moore, as they search for a new head coach.
