The Cowboys have their first two interviews scheduled for their head coaching position opening.
Former Jets coach Robert Saleh will speak with the Cowboys on Saturday, followed by Seahawks assistant head coach Leslie Frazier on Monday, Clarence Hill of All City DLLS reports.
Both coaches are minorities, so the Cowboys’ first two in-person interviews will satisfy the Rooney Rule. That would allow them to announce a new head coach as early as Tuesday.
Saleh also has talks with the Jaguars and Raiders. The Cowboys are Frazier’s first request in this hiring cycle.
Both are former head coaches.
Saleh finished his tenure with the Jets with a 20-36 record, including 2-3 before being fired during the 2024 season. Frazier was the head coach of the Vikings from 2011 to 2013 after securing the Interim for the final six games of 2010. He posted a 21-32-1 record.
