Mike Zimmer’s introductory press conference was the big news of the day in Cowboys Nation, with reporters getting their first glimpse of the defensive coordinator’s return to Dallas after many years away. We’ve got the details on what he had to say about the unit he’s inheriting, what he thinks about his reputation as “a jerk,” why his phone was ringing during his remarks, and what he had to say about Rex Ryan’s comments over the weekend. Bill Parcells has also weighed in on Zimmer’s hire, and we’ll look at why the disciplinarian may be the perfect foil to Mike McCarthy’s coaching style.
Elsewhere, Dan Quinn continues to assemble his staff in Washington, and his latest hires bring a decidedly familiar shade of blue to the Commanders. We’re looking at what free agency could do to some of the Cowboys who got the most playing time in 2023, two key Cowboys assistants seem set to return, a mock draft brings a dominant pass rusher to town, and how Tony Romo managed to blow the biggest call of Super Bowl LVIII. That’s all up in News and Notes.
