There's just one open head coach position in the NFL, and Mike McCarthy will not be the candidate filling it.
McCarthy, who parted ways with the Dallas Cowboys two weeks ago, will not coach in the NFL in 2025 and will instead focus on the 2026 hiring cycle, according to NFL Media and ESPN .

The New Orleans Saints are the lone remaining team still looking for its next head coach. The Saints on Tuesday morning confirmed they had completed in-person interview with Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore, who is in his first season with the team after holding the same position with the Los Angeles Chargers (2023) and Dallas Cowboys (2019-2022). Moore worked under McCarthy for three seasons in Dallas.
McCarthy also spent a season out of the NFL in 2019 after he was fired by the Green Bay Packers in 2018. He was hired by the Cowboys in 2020, and compiled a 49-35 record with the team. Overall, McCarthy has a .608 winning percentage as an NFL head coach (174-112-2) in 18 total seasons. He helped lead his team to the playoffs in 12 of those seasons, including three with the Cowboys.
