Cowboys Rumors: Packers' Rich Bisaccia Hasn't Been Requested for HC Interview

Green Bay Packers assistant head coach and special team coordinator Rich Bisaccia has not been contacted by the Dallas Cowboys for an interview request regarding the team's current head coaching vacancy, according to NFL insider Ed Werder.

Bisaccia previously served as an interim head coach of the Las Vegas Raiders for 12 games during the 2021 season.

The Cowboys parted ways with former head coach Mike McCarthy on Jan. 13.

Dallas is coming off a 2024 campaign that was marred by injuries and filled with overall inconsistency, finishing with a 7-10 record and missing the playoffs for the first time since the 2020 season.

The Cowboys struggled on both sides of the ball, owning the second-worst scoring defense in the NFL while ranking No. 21 in scoring offense.

As for Bisaccia, the Raiders finished with a record of 7-5 in his lone year taking on head coaching duties before he joined the Packers prior to the 2022 season.

The 64-year-old has been a coach in the NFL since 2002, starting with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers before joining the Chargers for two years from 2011-12.

Bisaccia already has some familiarity with the Cowboys, as he was their special teams coordinator and assistant head coach from 2013 through the 2017 season. While he obviously wasn't solely responsible for Dallas' success over that time, it's still worth noting that the team owned a 46-34 record during his tenure.

The Cowboys have already interviewed several candidates for their vacancy including offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer, Seattle Seahawks assistant head coach Leslie Frazier, Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Kellen Moore and former New York Jets head coach Robert Saleh (h/t NFL.com's Kevin Patra).

Bisaccia may become a candidate for the opening as well, but he hasn't been requested for a meeting as of now.
