Schottenheimer, the team’s offensive coordinator the last two seasons, has agreed to a contract to become the Cowboys head coach, the team announced Friday night. The deal is for four years, a person with knowledge of the contract told The Dallas Morning News.

While it’s still unclear how Schottenheimer’s staff with the Cowboys will look, ESPN reported ex-Bears head coach Matt Eberflus is a “prime candidate” for the defensive coordinator job. Schottenheimer’s Dallas promotion leaves the Saints as the only team with a head coaching vacancy left to fill.

Jones made the comfortable move that likely won't cost too much to replace Mike McCarthy as the Cowboys head coach
