Odds makers predict Cowboys to name NFL legend as new head coach image

Who will take over the Dallas Cowboys this offseason and be named the team's next head coach?

The rumors already have been flying left and right. A plethora of names have been floated as fits including but not limited to Bill Belichick, Robert Saleh, and Kellen Moore. Another person who has popped up is Colorado head coach and Cowboys legend Deion Sanders.

Sanders reportedly spoke to owner Jerry Jones earlier in the week, although an official interview hasn't taken place at this point.

Sanders is a very interesting person to watch. He has college head coaching experience and also had plenty of success in the National Football League. Sanders is a Hall of Famer, two-time Super Bowl champion, and eight-time Pro Bowler.

He's beloved in Dallas and DraftKings Sportsbook currently has him as the odds-on favorite to be named the team's next head coach.

Deion Sanders - +100
Kellen Moore - +250
Kliff Kingsbury - +350
Ben Johnson - +450
Joe Brady - +550
Aaron Glenn - +650

Sanders clearly has proven that he can be a good coach at the collegiate level, could he make the jump to the NFL, though? He certainly shouldn't be counted out, if anyone could do it, it would be him.

It's unknown how quickly the Cowboys will move, but keep an eye on Sanders.
