The Cowboys went with Jason Garrett as a lame-duck all season, and his contract officially expires on Jan. 14.
Even as early as Sunday morning, reports emerged that Garrett was still campaigning Dallas to keep him on. Meanwhile, the franchise had already moved forward with interviews for his replacement.
Garrett went 85-67 as the head coach of the Cowboys during the regular season since 2010, and his postseason record stands at 2-3, with Dallas never going past the divisional round under his leadership.
