The Cowboys have promoted Kellen Moore to offensive coordinator and hired former Dallas quarterback Jon Kitna to replace Moore as QB coach.Moore is replacing Scott Linehan after one season on the coaching staff Michael Gallup Jersey White , and just one year after retiring as a player. Moore was quarterback Dak Prescott‘s backup in his final season in 2017.The former Boise State standout spent six seasons as a player but started only two games — both when Tony Romo was injured during the 2015 season in Dallas. That was the only season in which Moore appeared in a game.Moore spent his first three seasons in Detroit, beginning when Linehan was offensive coordinator of the Lions. Moore replaced Wade Wilson as quarterbacks coach of the Cowboys as soon as he retired.Kitna spent the last three of his 15 NFL seasons as Romo’s backup with the Cowboys. He was the head coach at Waxahachie High School in the Dallas area for three years before spending last season at a private school in Phoenix. The Cowboys still have quarterback Dak Prescott, running back Ezekiel Elliott and wide receiver Amari Cooper Dak Prescott Jersey , so the change in offensive coordinators this year shouldn’t make for a radically different look on offense with Kellen Moore calling the plays.Any changes that do come aren’t likely to be a product of Moore acting totally on his own. Moore said recently that he wants to hear from everyone in the organization, including “some input from the players,” about how to put together an offense that produces at a high level.“It doesn’t mean you have to go down those roads all the time https://www.thecowboyslockerroom.com/authentic-ezekiel-elliott-jersey , but I think it’s important that when a player believes in something and they’re pretty [convinced] on it, usually they find a way to make it work,” Moore said Amari Cooper Cowboys Jersey , via the . “I think it’s a collaborative effort. It includes everyone. That’s part of this thing. We just got to get on the field together and start doing stuff, and then things evolve and take it where you want to take it at that point.”Having Cooper from the start of the year should give Moore a leg up over last season and a full return from center Travis Frederick would be another step in the right direction regardless of how many changes are born of that collaborative effort.
