Speaking Thursday, Cowboys coach Mike McCarthy declined to guarantee OC Kellen Moore will return for 2023.
“Kellen Moore, just like the rest of the coaches, will be evaluated,” McCarthy said. It’s coachspeak, but it’s also not a situation that would typically call for coachspeak. Moore has again drawn head-coaching interest this offseason, emerging as a finalist in Carolina before the Panthers decided to go with Frank Reich. We have an extremely difficult time believing Moore won’t be back next season, but it also wouldn’t be surprising if he and McCarthy were growing less philosophically aligned instead of more.
