After five seasons as the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys, Mike McCarthy parted ways from the team earlier this month. Now, more information is coming out as to why McCarthy and the Cowboys couldn't agree on a contract extension.
ESPN's Todd Archer reported on Thursday that McCarthy was adamant about agreeing to a five-year contract extension with the team. However, owner Jerry Jones apparently was stuck on a three-year deal. Both sides couldn't agree on a deal, although the details of the contract the Cowboys offered McCarthy are unknown.
