Cowboys' Coach McCarthy Returns After Appendectomy, Ready for Eagles Showdown

Despite Recent Health Scare, McCarthy Set to Call Plays in Crucial NFC East Matchup

Dallas Cowboys head coach Mike McCarthy is back with the team after undergoing an emergency appendectomy and is set to call plays in the upcoming game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
The coach returned to the team's facility two days after his surgery, having initially thought he was dealing with a stomach virus.
The Eagles currently lead the NFC East with a 10-2 record, while the Cowboys are close behind at 9-3. A win for the Cowboys would leave the teams almost tied in the race to start the playoffs at home.
This is McCarthy's fourth season as coach of the Cowboys, but his first as the play-caller after offensive coordinator Kellen Moore didn't return.
McCarthy has stated that he feels good and anticipates everything staying normal for the Sunday night game.
