The Cowboys’ new HC is getting his coaching staff assembled.
According to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network, the Cowboys are working to hire Ken Dorsey as their pass-game specialist.
Dorsey has most recently served as the offensive coordinator for the Cleveland Browns. The Browns hired Dorsey back in February of 2024, but he was fired after only one season. The Browns went 3-14 and were statistically one of the worst offenses in the NFL, averaging just 300.8 offensive yards per game – the fifth-lowest total in the league.
The Cowboys’ coaching staff is taking shape. Dorsey will work under the team’s new offensive coordinator, Klayton Adams. Adams had previously served as an offensive line coach for the Arizona Cardinals. Adams held that role for two full seasons before being hired onto Schottenheimer’s staff in Dallas.
Dallas is coming off of a season they would like to bury far back in the rearview mirror, with nine of the Cowboys’ 17 games seeing them finish with 20 or fewer points. In four of the final six games of the season, the Cowboys racked up fewer than 200 passing yards. Much of this can be attributed to the loss of Dak Prescott. Prescott, who the Cowboys extended shortly before Week 1, played in only eight games this year due to a hamstring injury that ultimately led to surgery.
