Garrett has been the Cowboys's coach since November 2010, when he succeeded Wade Phillips on an interim basis. He was given the job the following season. During his tenure, the Cowboys are 77-59 overall, with three playoff berths. When the Cowboys dipped to 3-5 during the 2018 regular season, there was speculation about his future, although the Cowboys rallied to win the NFC East title. By last week, NFL Network reported that Garrett and the team (read: Jones) were negotiating a long-term deal. Garrett is under contract through 2019.
