A familiar face from the Dallas Cowboys’ sideline is back in the NFL coaching conversation.

The longtime Cowboys head coach, now a national television analyst, is scheduled to interview on Friday for the Tennessee Titans’ top job.

Tennessee continues its search for a proven leader following the end of Mike Vrabel’s tenure, exploring candidates with experience and offensive pedigree.

The upcoming meeting signals a potential return to the sidelines for a former Cowboy after several years in broadcasting.

Jason Garrett to meet with Titans as coaching search expands

According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, former Dallas Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett will interview with the Tennessee Titans on Friday.

The Titans are assessing multiple candidates with established NFL experience as they plan their next phase under general manager Ran Carthon.

Garrett, who spent nearly a decade leading Dallas, is viewed as a respected figure known for structure and player management.

His leadership style and offensive grounding align with Tennessee’s goal of rebuilding consistency after a difficult season.

Having spent the past few years as an NBC analyst, Garrett has remained engaged with the modern game and trends shaping today’s offenses.

For the Titans, the interview represents a chance to balance familiarity and experience.

Garrett’s ability to guide veteran locker rooms could make him a practical candidate for a franchise seeking renewed identity and direction.

The numbers behind Jason Garrett’s Cowboys tenure

Garrett’s career in Dallas was defined by steadiness and structure. Across nine full seasons as head coach from 2010 to 2019, he posted an 85–67 regular-season record and went 2–3 in the playoffs.

Under his leadership, the Cowboys won three NFC East titles (2014, 2016, 2018), and he earned Coach of the Year honours in 2016 after leading the team to a 13–3 record.

Offensively, Dallas finished in the top 10 in total offense four times and in the top five in scoring twice during his tenure.

While postseason breakthroughs were limited, Garrett’s consistency, player development, and calm command of the locker room earned respect across the league.

For Tennessee, those same traits stand out. As the Titans evaluate leadership styles and long-term strategy, Garrett’s record points to a coach capable of providing discipline, balance, and stability.
