Prior to joining the Cowboys, Quinn was the head coach of the Atlanta Falcons from 2015-20. He led them to the Super Bowl in 2016, when they lost to Tom Brady and the New England Patriots after building a 28-3 lead.
During the season, Quinn said he wouldn’t leave the Cowboys just for the sake of it.
"I think for me coming here, I wasn’t coming here to look at what my next job would be," he told reporters. "I wanted to come in here and have a blast and hopefully kick ass and make an impact. … If those moments come, I’ll be ready for them if the right scenario came about, but honestly, I’m having a blast right here with this crew and going for it. That’s where my mind is, that’s where my heart is.

"I don’t really spend a lot of time thinking about down the road or what’s next. I just like really being in the moment with the guys."
For at least one more year, it appears Quinn will be in the moment with the Cowboys once again.
