Cowboys' DC search takes concerning turn with fourth interview confirmed

It’s hard not to be satisfied with the preliminary stages of the Dallas Cowboys’ search for a new defensive coordinator.

Broncos defensive pass game coordinator and assistant head coach Jim Leonhard appears to be the early favorite, but casting a wide net is bound to unearth some uninspiring candidates. While Brian Schottenheimer is driving the proverbial bus, Jerry Jones still owns the team. This search isn't going to conclude without some eye-rolling and head-scratching.

That may have happened after CBS insider Jonathan Jones reported on Monday that Cowboys defensive line coach Aaron Whitecotton will interview for the opening.
