Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is facing mounting pressure to replace offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer following a disappointing start to the season. According to recent reports, analysts and fans are urging Jones to pursue a high-profile candidate: a Cowboys legend who currently serves as head coach of the Oklahoma Sooners.
The speculation comes after the Cowboys' loss to the Washington Commanders on January 5, 2025, at AT&T Stadium in Arlington, Texas. With the offense struggling, calls for a coaching change have intensified.
While no official announcement has been made, the suggestion highlights the desire for a familiar face with a proven track record at both the collegiate and professional levels. The Cowboys legend in question has deep ties to the franchise and is currently leading the Sooners program.
Jones has not publicly commented on Schottenheimer's status, but the scrutiny is likely to increase as the team evaluates its offensive direction.
