This is still breaking, but: Mike McCarthy is supposedly out as head coach of the Dallas Cowboys.

ESPN, who is attributing this to “a source”.

McCarthy’s contract with the Cowboys expired last Wednesday but the team held an exclusive negotiating window with the coach until Tuesday at midnight. However, the sides have not had any negotiations regarding a new deal, sources told Schefter on Monday.

The Cowboys compiled a 49-35 record in McCarthy’s five seasons. Tom Landry and Jason Garrett are the only coaches in franchise history with more victories.
