Arizona Cardinals offensive line coach Klayton Adams will have an in-person interview with the Dallas Cowboys for their vacant offensive coordinator position, NFL Network reported on Friday.

He had a remote interview earlier this week with the Cowboys, who are filling a vacancy left open when then-offensive coordinator Brian Schottenheimer was promoted to head coach.

Schottenheimer, who did not hold play-calling responsibilities this past season under then-head coach Mike McCarthy, is expected to call plays for the Cowboys in 2025.

Adams, 41, spent the past two seasons with the Cardinals after working four years with the Indianapolis Colts as an assistant offensive line coach (2019-20) and tight ends coach (2021-22).

Under Adams' watch, the Cardinals ranked seventh in the league in 2024 in rushing yards and 11th in total offense.

ESPN reported on Thursday that Ken Dorsey is also considered a candidate for the Cowboys' OC job.

Dorsey, 43, was fired earlier this month after one season as the offensive coordinator of the Cleveland Browns.
