Dallas Cowboys hire Mike McCarthy the day after they fired Jason Garrett
McCarthy, who won a Super Bowl and went to three other NFC championship games with Green Bay, was hired today by the Dallas Cowboys to be their next head coach, per Jay Glazer.
McCarthy won the championship with Green Bay in the 2011 Super Bowl at the home of the Cowboys. The Packers won at least 10 games in eight of his first 11 seasons before going 7-9 in 2017. He was fired with the Packers at 4-7-1 last season.
The 56-year-old McCarthy has already interviewed with Cleveland, Carolina and the New York Giants.
This is a huge hire for the Dallas Cowboys, who fired Jason Garrett yesterday.
