The Dallas Cowboys are considering the possibility of bringing on Ron Rivera, the former head coach of the Washington Commanders, to fill the role of defensive coordinator.
Following Dan Quinn’s departure from the Dallas Cowboys to join the Washington Commanders, the Cowboys are actively seeking their third defensive coordinator in five seasons. Mike McCarthy, the Cowboys’ head coach, is expected to interview Ron Rivera, the former head coach of the Commanders, for the vacant defensive coordinator position. Rivera, who has interviewed with other teams like the Los Angeles Rams and was linked to the Philadelphia Eagles before they made their hires, last served as a defensive coordinator in 2010 with the Chargers. If hired by the Cowboys, Rivera would essentially swap roles with Quinn.Nevertheless, the Dallas Cowboys have additional strong contenders to explore for the replacement of Quinn, such as Mike Vrabel, Brandon Staley, Wink Martindale, and Mike Zimmer. With Quinn seeking a head coaching position, Dallas was prepared for his departure, presenting the team with various choices. Multiple interviews with candidates are anticipated as the team evaluates its options.The Dallas Cowboys are accustomed to experiencing frustration with their coaching staff. Following the humiliating 48-32 loss to the Green Bay Packers, Quinn was inevitably set to depart and seek a new beginning.
