The Carolina Panthers’ search for a new head coach might be expanding with yet another young offensive play caller.
As first reported by Todd Archer of ESPN on Wednesday morning, the Panthers have requested an interview with Dallas Cowboys offensive coordinator Kellen Moore.
The Boise State quarterback spent six years in the NFL between the Detroit Lions and the Cowboys. He appeared in just three games, all in 2015, passing for 779 yards, four touchdowns and six interceptions while completing 58.7 percent of his throws.
Moore moved to the sidelines in 2018, as a quarterbacks coach for Dallas. He was promoted to his current post as offensive coordinator just one campaign later in 2019.
Under Moore, the Cowboys finished the 2022 season ranked 11th in total offense (354.9 yards per game) and fourth in scoring (27.5 points per game). The 34-year-old is now the eighth known candidate in the Panthers’ search—joining Steve Wilks, Jim Caldwell, Frank Reich, Shane Steichen, Ben Johnson, Ken Dorsey and Mike Kafka.
