Cowboys Rumors: 10 BIG-TIME Coaching Candidates Dallas Could Try To Target To Replace Jason Garrett

Dallas Cowboys rumors continue to center on the future of Jason Garrett, who is on the hot seat and could be fired by Jerry Jones at the end of the year. So who could the Dallas Cowboys target to replace Garrett in 2020? There’s a long list of targets, but who are the biggest names to pursue? The Cowboys might not land any of these coaches, but why not try? 

Sean Payton of course leads the list. But will he leave for the Cowboys, despite his connection to the franchise and Jerry Jones, after signing a massive extension with the Saints? What about Lincoln Riley, who knows the Jones family fairly well? 

There are several sitting head coaches the Cowboys could try to target, even though a trade might be needed. Bill Belichick and John Harbaugh would be awesome, but would they come to the Cowboys and leave awesome situations? What about Sean McVay? He’d get an upgrade at quarterback.
