After five years with the Dallas Cowboys, Mike McCarthy is a free agent coach. The Cowboys, as his incumbent team, hold exclusive negotiation rights with the coach until midnight, Tuesday. After that, McCarthy is free to talk to any team.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that the Cowboys and McCarthy have yet to engage in negotiations, a surprising update considering the Cowboys have had a huge leg up given their exclusivity, and the team has gestured toward its interest in retaining the head coach.
