Garrett, who is still technically the head coach until either he is let go by the franchise, or his contract expires of the 14th of January, previously indictated that he "absolutely" wants to remain in Dallas as the head coach.
Having already interviewed veteran NFL coaches Mike McCarthy and Marvin Lewis, and being reported to at least be "taking the temperature" of Oklahoma Sooner head coach Lincoln Riley, Dallas already seems pretty far down the road in that search.
Glazer also indicated in his report that things went well enough with McCarthy, that he is spending an extra day in the DFW while the Cowboys continue to conduct the search.
As the playoffs continue, and participating teams with viable candidates seasons start to come to an end, however, the Cowboys' interview list will surely continue to grow in number.
