Deion Sanders emerges as candidate for NFL coaching role amid Cowboys struggles

Deion Sanders, head coach of the Colorado Buffaloes, is being considered for a potential NFL coaching position. Sanders, 57, is in his second season at Colorado, leading the team toward the college football playoffs. Former NFL coach Rex Ryan suggested Sanders could be a strong candidate for the Dallas Cowboys, who have struggled this season. Ryan noted that teams like the Detroit Lions and Houston Texans have improved after hiring former players as coaches. Cowboys owner Jerry Jones stated that current head coach Mike McCarthy will not be fired before the season ends, but his contract expires after this season. The Cowboys may explore new coaching options as they look to improve.
