Cowboys to interview Dolphins assistant for DC opening

Miami Dolphins outside linebackers coach Ryan Crow will interview for the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive coordinator vacancy, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

Crow previously interviewed for the New England Patriots’ defensive coordinator position shortly before the team decided to hire Terrell Williams for the role. The Cowboys introduced Brian Schottenheimer as their new head coach earlier Monday.

The Dolphins hired Crow in 2024 after he spent the previous six seasons on Mike Vrabel’s staff with the Tennessee Titans. Last week, Vrabel was announced as the new head coach of the Patriots, but opted against reuniting with his former assistant.

Schottenheimer, 51, began his NFL coaching career in 1997, but hasn’t crossed paths with Crow previously.

In his first season with the Dolphins, Crow spent most of the year working with young pass rushers while Bradley Chubb and Jaelan Phillips were rehabbing injuries. First-round pick Chop Robinson made impressive growth as the season went on, transforming into one of the NFL’s most productive pass rushers in the second half of the year.
