The Dallas Cowboys are currently working to complete their coaching staff after hiring Brian Schottenheimer as the head coach.

While the team has already filled out most of their coaching staff, a few key positions remain vacant, including offensive coordinator, running backs coach, wide receivers coach, and quarterbacks coach.

So far, under Schottenheimer’s leadership, the Cowboys have made several notable hires to round out their staff.

With these key positions filled on the defensive end, the Cowboys are now focused on rounding out the remaining spots on the offensive side of the coaching staff with just a few spots remaining.

Today, the Dallas Cowboys reached an agreement to extend Lunda Wells' contract, ensuring that he will continue as the team’s tight ends coach. Additionally, the Cowboys conducted an interview with Klayton Adams for the offensive coordinator position.
