We are tracking everything you need to know about head coach Brian Schottenheimer’s staff with the Dallas Cowboys.
The Dallas Cowboys officially hired Brian Schottenheimer to be the 10th head coach in franchise history on Friday night.
Monday morning will be the press conference to introduce Schottenheimer to the world, but many Cowboys fans have been preparing for this reality for the past week now. Schotty has been the team’s offensive coordinator for the last two seasons and on the staff for the last three in general, but running a team is a very different thing.
