Nick Harris of the Fort Worth Star-Telegram reports Jones has spoken with former Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll regarding the opening. Harris described the conversation “as informal, although the interest is legitimate enough to be reported.” There are no plans for a formal interview, per Harris.

The Cowboys have spent the past few days in conversations with offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer. Jones reportedly had an informal conversation with Colorado coach Deion Sanders at the beginning of the search, and the organization has officially interviewed Kellen Moore, Robert Saleh and Robert Frazier for the open head coaching position.
