Jerry Jones' phone call with Deion Sanders was thought to be about interest in the Dallas Cowboys job, but was it?

On Friday, the Dallas Cowboys promoted offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer to head coach, replacing Mike McCarthy. While the Cowboys ultimately hired internally, there was no shortage of rumors swirling about outside options vying for the job.

I’m not giving up my fight. You’re gonna ride by here again in another year or two if this thing don’t work out again, and my song will still be singing like a young Diana Ross: Deion! All the way.'' - Michael Irvin on the Cowboys not hiring coach Sanders.
