Cowboys Linked to Vikings DC Brian Flores as Contract Nears Expiration

Reports link Brian Flores to Dallas ahead of his Vikings contract expiring.

Overview

  • Multiple outlets, citing Pro Football Talk, report Dallas could pursue Brian Flores to replace defensive coordinator Matt Eberflus after a disappointing season.
  • Flores’ deal with Minnesota expires after Week 18, and the Vikings have tried to extend him with expectations ownership would work to keep him.
  • Mike Florio popularized the Dallas-Flores scenario, which has since been echoed by Yahoo Sports and The Sporting News without any formal offer reported.
  • Florio notes Jerry Jones could put significant money on the table, raising the prospect of a bidding war that might include Minnesota and other teams.
  • Some reporting pushes back on the idea that Flores would accept a lateral coordinator move, and he may also draw interest for head-coach openings in the coming cycle.
