Witten’s name has been involved in the Cowboys 2025 offseason search for a new head coach to replace Mike McCarthy, some even saying he’s a genuine candidate. To what extent Witten’s been involved with the open position is still up in the air.

Brian Schottenheimer, the Dallas Cowboys' offensive coordinator, has over two decades of NFL coaching experience and a strong football pedigree as the son of legendary coach Marty Schottenheimer. He began his NFL coaching career in 1997 and has since held roles with teams like the Chargers, Jets, and Seahawks.
