CeeDee Lamb 'Likes' Photo About Deion Sanders, Jerry Jones Discussing Cowboys HC Job

Dallas Cowboys star CeeDee Lamb made his opinion known in a small way after the team was linked with Colorado head coach Deion Sanders.

NFL insider Jordan Schultz pointed out that Lamb "liked" an Instagram post regarding Sanders' conversation with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones about their coaching vacancy.

Sanders retired after the 2005 season. Players in the league now may have little to no recollection of him suiting up in the NFL, including the period when he cemented himself as one of the greatest cornerbacks in history.

Still, the 57-year-old maintains a massive profile within the sport, a fact that was driven home with how much attention has been paid to Colorado football since his arrival there.

Particularly among current and former Cowboys players and the team's fanbase, Sanders will be a popular pick after playing five seasons there.

Whether it's the Cowboys or somewhere else, the Hall of Famer would immediately command the respect of the locker room. Colorado going 9-4 after losing eight of its last nine games in 2023 also shifted the conversation about his coaching abilities as well.

That's not to say Sanders would be a home run hire for Dallas. There's a clear difference between the college and pro games from a coaching perspective, and a reunion between Sanders and Jones, two men with big personalities, has the potential to implode.

News of Mike McCarthy's exit as head coach only surfaced Monday, so the Cowboys are just kicking off their coaching search. To the extent he's a genuine candidate for the job, Sanders is likely one of many names who will be vetted by the organization.

The coming days should reveal how serious this possibility is.
