The Dallas Cowboys let some contracts expire
The Dallas Cowboys announced they were not renewing several coaching contracts for the 2023 season. The decisions come days after the Cowboys lost in the Divisional Round to the San Francisco 49ers. Owner Jerry Jones was emotional and said he was “sick” following Sunday night’s 19-12 narrow defeat. Jones said head coach Mike McCarthy’s job was safe for next season.
But not every position on the coaching staff was. According to Jane Slater with the NFL Network, McCarthy released a statement on the coaches who would not be extended for next season.
- Rob Davis (Assistant Head Coach)
- George Edwards (Senior Defensive Assistant)
- Leon Lett (Assistant Defensive Line)
- Skip Peete (Running Backs)
- Joe Philbin (Offensive Line)
- Kyle Valero (Quality Control Analytics)
“We thank these men for their hard work, dedication and contributions to the Cowboys. Each of them represented our team and organization at a high, professional level with class and commitment to making our team better,” said McCarthy. “These were difficult decisions to make because of the great respect I have for each of them as a coach and person of character, combined with the experiences we ve all gone through together. This is the hardest part of the business and we wish them nothing but the best.”

The Dallas Cowboys will be on the hunt for several new coaches for the 2023 season. It’s expected they’ll want to compete for a long playoff run next season. The Cowboys fell short of the NFC Championship Game two seasons in a row following a 12-5 regular season.
