The Dallas Cowboys are intensifying their head coaching search following Mike McCarthy's exit, with a weekend set for discussions with Kellen Moore, Robert Saleh, and Leslie Frazier. Kellen Moore is seen as a frontrunner, but the search may expand to include rising stars Ben Johnson and Aaron Glenn, both of whom have garnered attention for head coaching opportunities after successful stints with the Detroit Lions.

Ben Johnson has impressed with his offensive prowess, notably reviving Jared Goff’s career to the tune of 4,629 passing yards and 37 touchdowns last season. His potential addition could greatly benefit Dak Prescott, who struggled last year due to injuries. Aaron Glenn, recognized for his leadership ability, has also made a strong impression, with some believing he could be a compelling candidate for Jerry Jones.
