Cowboys will interview former Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon for their defensive coordinator vacancy on Tuesday.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that Gannon had interviewed with the Cowboys earlier this week, ostensibly via video. The Cowboys are reportedly set to host two more in-person meetings, one with Eagles DB coach and pass game coordinator Christian Parker and the other with Vikings DB coach and pass game coordinator and Daronte Jones.
Daronte Jones

MIN Coaching Staff

Cowboys will interview Vikings defensive pass game coordinator and DB coach Daronte Jones on Saturday for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

It’s an in-person interview and Jones’ second with the team, cementing him as either a finalist or semi-finalist depending on how long the Cowboys want to drag this out. Jones has an interesting ascension case to be Vikings defensive coordinator if Brian Flores leaves, so he seems to have good odds of coming out of this cycle with a coordinator job.
Brandon Aubrey

DAL Kicker #17

ESPN’s Todd Archer believes it is “likely” that Cowboys K Brandon Aubrey will receive a second-round tender in restricted free agency.

It would be a $6 million cap figure for Aubrey if so, something that would put him easily in the top five kickers by average annual value. The Cowboys and agent Todd France “never got close” on extension talks with Aubrey last season. It’s one more thing the Cowboys need to figure out while they worry about how to pay George Pickens and rebuild their back seven this offseason.
DeMarcus Covington

GB Coaching Staff

NFL Insider Josina Anderson reports the Cowboys have requested to interview Packers defensive line coach DeMarcus Covington for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

Covington joined the Packers as defensive line coach prior to the 2025 season. The Packers were middle-of-the-pack in both sacks and rushing yards allowed and boasted a defensive line of Micah Parsons, Rashan Gary, and more. Green Bay was able to generate pressure under Covington, though Parsons’ late-season ACL tear stymied the pass rush. The Cowboys parted ways with Matt Eberflus after the season and are interviewing candidates for the defensive coordinator role. Covington is next up on the interview list.
Charlie Bullen

NYG Defensive Coordinator

Cowboys requested an interview with Giants interim DC Charlie Bullen for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

Bullen was promoted from OLB coach to interim defensive coordinator and assigned play-calling duties in Week 13. The Giants allowed the third-most yards per play in Weeks 1-12 (6.1) while ranking 23rd in quarterback pressure rate (32.9 percent). With Bullen at the helm, the Giants reduced the former figure to 5.1 and increased the latter to 39.9 percent. This could be a smart move for the Cowboys.
Christian Parker

PHI Coaching Staff

Cowboys requested to interview Eagles DB coach and pass game coordinator Christian Parker for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

ESPN’s Todd Archer notes that Parker is the seventh known candidate for the position. Parker interviewed for the Saints’ defensive coordinator vacancy last year, after his first season in his current roles with the Eagles. He previously coached the Broncos’ defensive backs from 2021-2023.
Jonathan Gannon

FA Head Coach

Cowboys scheduled an interview with former Cardinals head coach Jonathan Gannon for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

Finally a big name in this search. Gannon was more quirky than good as Eagles defensive coordinator, something he carried over with him in the desert as the unit spit out a 21st-place finish in defensive DVOA in 2025 after a ton of offseason investments in players like Josh Sweat and Will Johnson. Gannon would at least have more time to focus on calling a defense as a coordinator again.
Aaron Whitecotton

DAL Coaching Staff

Cowboys will interview Cowboys DL coach Aaron Whitecotton for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

Whitecotton, who came over from the Jets staff under Robert Saleh, was reportedly instrumental in the Quinnen Williams trade. It is not known how Whitecotton would call a room as he has no NFL defensive coordinator experience, however, he’s not Matt Eberflus, so he has that going for him.
Ephraim Banda

CLE Coaching Staff

Cowboys completed their interview with Browns S coach Ephraim Banda for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

The Cowboys completed two defensive coordinator interviews today, having met with Vikings defensive pass game coordinator and DB coach Daronte Jones earlier on. Tomorrow, they are set to speak with Broncos assistant head coach and defensive passing game coordinator Jim Leonhard.
Daronte Jones

MIN Coaching Staff

Cowboys completed an interview with Vikings defensive pass game coordinator and DB coach Daronte Jones for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

The process for moving past fired DC Matt Eberflus is in its opening stages. Jones, 47, hasn’t called plays for a defense since his brief stint as LSU defensive coordinator in 2021. He does have plenty of high-level defensive experience and specializes in defensive back play, which makes him a good thought for a Cowboys back seven that figures to have a lot of turnover this offseason.
