As Dallas Cowboys fans nervously wait for more updates in the head coaching search, they're largely hoping that someone - specifically Colorado head coach and Cowboys alum Deion Sanders - winds up with the job rather than offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer.

The Deion Sanders-NFL rumors are at an all-time peak after Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones reportedly spoke to Sanders about the team’s head coaching vacancy this week. Sanders released a statement about their conversation on Monday night in which he called the Cowboys’ job “intriguing,” but declined to say much more than that.

Jerry Jones' unwillingness to break the bank for a head coach could be a major obstacle for the Dallas Cowboys if they want to pursue Deion Sanders.
