DALLAS — The Dallas Cowboys have found their new head coach: Brian Schottenheimer, the team's offensive coordinator the last two seasons. Schottenheimer replaces Mike McCarthy, who split ways with Dallas after the injury-riddled Cowboys struggled to a 7-10 record in 2024.

The Dallas Cowboys unveiled Brian Schottenheimer as their new head coach at The Star, and now the organization can begin to move forward after what was a disastrous last 12 months. Schotty, in speaking with the media, was direct and firm in knowing exactly what he wants, and how he wants his team to play.

Schottenheimer began his coaching career back in 1997 when he landed an assistant position with the St. Louis Rams. Over the years, he has served on the coaching staff for teams such as the Washington Commanders, Los Angeles Chargers, New York Jets, Seattle Seahawks, Jacksonville Jaguars and several others.
