Dallas Cowboys complete interview with Kellen Moore for vacant head coach position


The Dallas Cowboys completed their virtual interview with Kellen Moore for the team’s vacant head coach position on Friday afternoon, the team announced.

Dallas had requested to interview the Philadelphia offensive coordinator earlier this week. The Eagles face the Los Angeles Rams in the divisional round of the playoff on Sunday.

The Cowboys have also set interviews with Robert Saleh on Saturday and Leslie Frazier on Monday for the opening. Interviews of Saleh and Frazier would satisfy the NFL’s Rooney Rule, which requires NFL teams to interview at least one or more diverse candidates for head coaching vacancies. Jerry Jones has also reportedly talked to Colorado coach and former Cowboys star Deion Sanders.

Moore played and coached for the Cowboys from 2015 until his departure as offensive coordinator in 2022. He spent the last two seasons as the offensive coordinator for the Chargers and Eagles.

Moore was asked about the Cowboys’ opening in a news conference a day after the Cowboys parted ways with former head coach Mike McCarthy.

“I mean, obviously I spent a lot of time there. Eight years there and so, obviously have plenty of relationships [in] that place,” Moore told reporters Tuesday. “I love it here. I’ve had so much fun here. It’s been a really fun process and we’re in a really special situation right now, getting the chance to play this Sunday. Have a chance to make a run at this thing and that’s really all you worry about.

“Everything else is what it is and we’ll see where it takes you.”
