Cowboys' New OC Klayton Adams Emphasizes Aggressive, Physical Offensive Identity

Klayton Adams, Dallas' newly hired offensive coordinator, aims to revamp the team’s approach with a focus on physicality and adaptability under head coach Brian Schottenheimer.

• Klayton Adams, the Dallas Cowboys' new offensive coordinator, is prioritizing an aggressive, physical philosophy for the offense, emphasizing running, hitting, and creating 'violence in the game.'
• Adams will collaborate closely with head coach Brian Schottenheimer, who will call plays, to craft a game plan that aligns with Schottenheimer's vision while maximizing the team's strengths.
• Adams’ background as an offensive line coach underpins his approach, with a focus on improving Dallas' rushing attack, which ranked 27th in the league last season.
• Dak Prescott's limited mobility compared to Adams' previous quarterback, Kyler Murray, may require adjustments to the offensive strategy, particularly in red-zone scenarios.
• Adams is tasked with enhancing offensive line performance and building relationships with players to establish a cohesive and effective unit for the 2025 season.
