The Dallas Cowboys have a positive reputation for being one of the most iconic franchises. They have had the taste of gold in the past. However, the modern era has had a Super Bowl drought for many years. After Jimmy Johnson, the franchise has struggled for a suitable coach. But Skip Bayless once believed the Cowboys might become championship relevant after the arrival of the icon, Sean Payton.

Sean Payton had the news rumbling after announcing him stepping away from the New Orleans Saints. However, he did not declare retirement from the sidelines, so are chances of him hitting the sidelines again. Since his hiatus, multiple rumors have spread of him heading to various franchises. The Dallas Cowboys are long in the rumbles of having Payton on the team.

During the FS1’s UNDISPUTED, Jenny Taft opens the segment while Skip Bayless thumps his papers on the desk with a big grin. The sports columnist is practically a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader (not the real ones) and is also happy after rumors suggesting Sean Payton to the iconic NFC East franchise.

Billionaire Owner Jerry Jones Addresses Rumors of Sean Payton Replacing Mike McCarthy as Dallas Cowboys HC

“Let’s not bury the lead, shall we? Because you are now in trouble. Sean Payton is going to save my Dallas Cowboys. Happy days are here again… I think.” he mentions.

Bayless also takes to Twitter, expressing how the Cowboys could become after Sean Payton’s arrival.

If the rumors turn into reality, then Mike McCarthy might lose his job again. However, Miami Herald reports that Payton might return to the sidelines in 2023, and the Dallas Cowboys are in the lead. However, they have got competition. The Los Angeles Chargers and Miami Dolphins could be on the run for the Super Bowl-winning HC. 

Sean Payton to the Dallas Cowboys is a recurring rumor

Sean Payton has a longstanding relationship with the Dallas Cowboys. As per CBS Sports, Payton spent some years in Dallas as the team’s assistant head coach and quarterbacks coach. Although their relationship has never been compromised, Jerry Jones allegedly thought about parting ways with Jason Garrett.

The Cowboys reached out to Payton via unofficial routes to interest him in moving back to Dallas. But he exploited the positional advantage to wrangle a five-year contract extension with the New Orleans Saints, securing his position through 2024. However, considering the friendship between Payton and Jerry Jones, it makes sense if the management parts ways with Mike McCarthy.
