ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter provided a significant update on Mike McCarthy and the Chicago Bears head coaching situation.

After three straight seasons where Mike McCarthy led the Dallas Cowboys to the playoffs, it was a difficult final season for him in Dallas and that culminated with the team moving on from him once his contract ran out.

ESPN's Adam Schefter believes former Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is a "legitimate candidate" to coach either the Chicago Bears or New

Adam Schefter believes Mike McCarthy is firmly in the mix for the vacant New Orleans Saints coaching gig, following his unceremonious departure from the Dallas Cowboys.

Mike McCarthy is no longer planning to coach this year, sources told ESPN, while Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore has emerged as a lead candidate for the Saints job, the last remaining head coach vacancy in the NFL.

Schefter added on the podcast that he did not want to leave the NFL Network when he did in 2009, but a salary disagreement forced his hand and he left for ESPN. Schefter signed a multi-year extension with ESPN worth $9 million a year in 2022, around the same time that ex-reporter Adrian Wojnarowski did.

Adam Schefter continues to downplay Ben Johnson to the Raiders and reiterates the Bears are still a strong contender.

The Eagles will be looking for a new offensive coordinator for the third straight year if Moore leaves to become the head coach in New Orleans.

The latest on Eagles' offensive coordinator Kellen Moore suggests Philadelphia is going to lose him to a new job after Super Bowl LIX.

Cowboys QB Dak Prescott finally weighed in on the controversial hire of Brian Schottenheimer as Dallas' next head coach.

Among active head coaches, Giants head coach Brian Daboll's .353 win percentage (18 wins in 51 career games) is tied for the league's third-worst, ahead of 2024 first-year coaches Dave Canales (Panthers) and Brian Callahan (Titans).
