For Cowboys officials, Schottenheimer became the logical choice regardless of what others thought because of the continuity he brings to the position. Schottenheimer joined the organization as an offensive consultant in 2022 and served as the team’s offensive coordinator for the past two seasons.

Jerry defended the decision as the culmination of a “thorough, thorough process.” The Cowboys interviewed Robert Saleh, Leslie Frazier, Kellen Moore, and Schottenheimer.
