ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter provided a significant update on Mike McCarthy and the Chicago Bears head coaching situation.

After three straight seasons where Mike McCarthy led the Dallas Cowboys to the playoffs, it was a difficult final season for him in Dallas and that culminated with the team moving on from him once his contract ran out.

Ian Rapoport and Tom Pelissero jointly noted on Twitter that McCarthy has “decided to focus on the 2026 hiring cycle and will not coach in the NFL this season.” He was still considered one of the hottest candidates on the market, but openings were drying up.

Adam Schefter believes Mike McCarthy is firmly in the mix for the vacant New Orleans Saints coaching gig, following his unceremonious departure from the Dallas Cowboys.

The Chicago Bears went to market for a head coach earlier than most NFL teams, making the decision to fire Matt Eberflus following Thanksgiving. Now, it appears the Bears are looking to focus their coaching search on Mike McCarthy.
