DMN Blog: Bill Cowher is staying at CBS, I think

by Barry Horn

The New York tabloids all but had Bill Cowher signed sealed and delivered to coach the New York Jets earlier this week. But now comes word that he has decided not to interview for the Jets job or the Browns job.

It looks like he isn't in the Cowboys non-mix, either. The Cowboys, you may have heard, are sticking with Wade Phillips. Imagine this headline: "Coach Cowher not interviewing for non-vacant Cowboys coaching job." Wow, sports journalism is sure changing.

And to top it all off, CBS and Cowher have agreed to a contract extension that will keep him the network's pre-game studio for another year.
