Cowboys DC Matt Ebeflus may not be long for Dallas

Things got tougher for Eberflus from the start. The Cowboys traded Micah Parsons to the Packers, and the defense never picked up in the 2025 season.

Eberflus said trade made a differenceaccording to a post on X by Clarence Hill Jr.

“Cowboys DC Matt Eberflus admitted things changed on defense when they lost All-Pro pass rusher who can win quickly. But you can’t look back.”

The Cowboys rank 30th in the NFL in yards allowed per game at 376.8. They are dead last against the pass (253.6) and better against the run at 19th (123.3).

Perhaps the acquisition of Kenny Clark in the Parsons trade, and later the acquisition of Quinnen Williams in the Jets deal, made the difference. But it didn’t change the defense at all.

Still, Eberfluss said yes they wouldn’t do things differentlyaccording to The Athletic.

“I don’t really think about it that way,” Eberflus said. “I think about being in the moment and just continuing to adapt and learn and grow and get better. I don’t think I would do anything differently. I think I would just work on adjusting when you have different players come in and that stuff. I think that’s what you do as a coach.

“I think at the beginning of the year guys were in and out, in the sense that we weren’t at full strength. And then when we got some guys back, I thought we had a good chunk. I thought the chunk was pretty good. We started to improve. I know we improved in run defense and third down defense.”
