Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy 'hires Tom Brady's agent and could quit' after miserable season in Dallas
Share:
Mike McCarthy's critics may be getting a late Christmas gift in Dallas, where the Cowboys coach could be inching towards the door amid a miserable 7-8 campaign. Now 14 years removed from winning the Super Bowl with the Green Bay Packers, the embattled McCarthy recently hired Tom Brady's former agent Don Yee, USA Today has revealed. And that decision has led to questions about McCarthy's expiring contact and his future in Dallas.

Yee recently negotiated major deals for coach Jim Harbaugh with the Los Angeles Chargers and Sean Payton with the Denver Broncos, but according to the USA Today piece, has yet to meaningfully engage with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones or his son Stephen about McCarthy.

And as USA Today columnist Jarrett Bell posited: 'McCarthy might opt to bolt and become a coaching free agent.'. McCarthy is 49-33 in regular-season games with the Cowboys, and just 1-3 in the playoffs. While expressing how proud he was of the team and how they played for McCarthy, Jones still wasn't ready to address the coach's contract status - or the lack of a deal after this season.
Could Mike McCarthy leave the Cowboys before they have a chance to let him go?. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones has remained noncommittal about Mike McCarthy's future. 'All I can say is what a good job, how good a job he's doing,' Jones said. 'Don´t have thoughts that I would share as to anything about what we do ... after we´re through playing this year.'.
