It remains to be seen what kind of season the Dallas Cowboys will have in 2025 under new head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who takes over the job following the departure of previous HC Mike McCarthy.
However, he’s already making his presence felt as the team’s new sideline and locker room boss. In one of his first moves as Dallas head coach, Schottenheimer had the lockers of linebacker Micah Parsons and quarterback Dak Prescott positioned side by side.
Via Michael David Smith of Pro Football Talk:
“We moved some guys around,” Schottenheimer said. “This year, I did, along with the help of the staff. They don’t really get a say in that, but there’s a method to the madness. I think when the guys went into the team room for the first time, I made them all stand up after they sat down, I let them sit down and I had them stand up and move seats.
Why? It’s a new year. It’s 2025. We’ll do that in 2026, we’ll do that in 2027 and beyond. When you start a new year, do something different. Change something up. It’s something that’s talked about, thought about, but there’s a method to the madness at times.”
Schottenheimer is not a new face for the Dallas Cowboys
While he’s a first-time head coach, Schottenheimer and the Cowboys organization are very much familiar with each other.
Before he got promoted to his current job title, the 51-year-old Schottenheimer served as the team’s offensive coordinator from 2023 to 2024. He was also the Cowboys’ passing game coordinator in 2022.
