Cowboys are working to hire Eagles DB coach and pass game coordinator Christian Parker for their defensive coordinator vacancy.

22 January 2026

The deal has not yet been finalized, but multiple national and local reporters are saying the Cowboys want to bring him aboard, so we expect it to be finalized soon enough. Parker, 34, has studied under Eagles DC Vic Fangio, in his current roles, for the past two seasons. He spent the 2022-2023 seasons as the Broncos’ defensive backs coach, notably working under Broncos DC Vance Joseph in his second season with the team.
