Cowboys DC Dan Quinn wraps head coach interview with Indianapolis Colts, Arizona Cardinals requests permission to interview

Dan Quinn is once again a very busy man come January, as it pertains to his present and future job situations.

While the Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator is trying to help the franchise get back to the Super Bowl, the defensive coordinator is hot on multiple radars to once again become a head coach in the NFL. 

“Colts completed their HC interview with Cowboys’ DC Dan Quinn,” tweeted Adam Schefter of ESPN.

In addition to the Indianapolis Colts and Quinn’s prior interview with the Denver Broncos — who he also interviewed with last season — the Arizona Cardinals are also gauging his interest.

“Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn interviewed for a pair of head coaching openings on Friday and he could sit down with another team as well,” wrote Josh Alper of Pro Football Talk. “Tom Pelissero of NFL Media reports that the Cardinals have requested an interview with Quinn. He interviewed with the Colts and Broncos on Friday.

“Quinn has not scheduled an interview with the Cardinals at this point, so any conversation would likely come until after the Cowboys face the 49ers in Santa Clara on Sunday.”

Of course, Quinn’s sole focus is the San Francisco 49ers at the moment, but it looks like his time in Dallas could be coming to an end.

Dan Quinn is a sought-after coach who will be a head coach soon, it’s just a matter of when and where for the current Dallas Cowboys defensive genius.
