New on SI: NFL Coaching Rumors: Jerry Jones to Meet Jason Garrett Again Tuesday

Check out the latest coaching news and rumors around the NFL.

Cowboys owner Jerry Jones is meeting again with head coach Jason Garrett on Tuesday.

According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the two are scheduled to meet at noon CT and while a resolution is "likely," it is "not definite." 

"Expectation continues to be Garrett and Dallas will part ways," Schefter notes. "But the Cowboys are run as a family, Garrett has been a part of family, and it’s hard to part ways."

A number of other teams have already made decisions regarding their futures. Since the conclusion of Week 17, the Browns have fired Freddie Kitchens and the Giants have dismissed Pat Shurmur. The Jaguars have decided to retain Doug Marrone and the Redskins have reportedly hired Ron Rivera to be their next head coach. 

The coaching rumors mill was swirling on Monday and is expected to remain busy as the calendar turns over to 2020.

It's been a historically bad week for NFL kickers, with 12 missed PATs through the conclusion of Sunday's evening games. View the original article to see embedded media. Kickers in many ways have a thankless job. Make a kick, and often times nobody really cares. Miss one? Well, people won't stop bringing it up. The 2021 season has already established a new high-water mark in kicking with Ravens kicker Justin Tucker's NFL record-setting 66-yard field goal to beat the Lions in Week 3. Two weeks later, though, we might have established a new low point. Prior to kickoff on Sunday Night Football  between the Bills and Chiefs, kickers had missed a whopping 12 extra points in Week 5.

Former Packers great Brett Favre said Aaron Rodgers was surprised by Green Bay's decision to draft Jordan Love. Former Packers legend Brett Favre believes that star quarterback Aaron Rodgers won't finish his career in Green Bay. "I think he will play somewhere else," the three-time MVP said Wednesday on the Rich Eisen Show. Favre said he was "very surprised" about the Packers' decision to select Utah State QB Jordan Love No. 26 overall in the 2020 NFL draft last Thursday, noting that the team's decision not to draft "any weapons that can help immediately" sends a "disrespect message" to the team's current quarterback.
