In March of 2024, in our company Slack room, I laughed about how the “most Cowboys thing possible” would be for Jerry Jones to move on from Mike McCarthy after the season, hire Deion Sanders, and find a way to draft Shedeur Sanders as their starting QB.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones speaking with Deion Sanders about his head coaching vacancy raises so many fascinating possibilities. Obviously, it’s far from a lock that Jones will hire Deion, who spent the past two seasons coaching his star quarterback son at Colorado.
