Jeff Nixon To Interview With Cowboys
2 years agoCarolina Panthers running backs coach Jeff Nixon has an interview scheduled with the Dallas Cowboys for their offensive coordinator position, according to a league source. Nixon was the Panthers' play-caller last year after Joe Brady was fired, and he did a nice job with running backs D'Onta Foreman and Chuba Hubbard in 2022 after the team traded Christian McCaffrey to the San Francisco 49ers. Dallas is looking for a new offensive coordinator after parting ways with Kellen Moore, who quickly landed on his feet as the Los Angeles Chargers' new offensive coordinator. The Cowboys plan to have head coach Mike McCarthy call the offensive plays in 2023. Former offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, who was on Dallas' staff as an analyst this year, is another candidate for the position.
