FRISCO, Texas — There was quite the exodus of talent, players and coaches, making its way from the Dallas Cowboys to the Washington Commanders this offseason, largely thanks to Dan Quinn — former defensive coordinator of the former turned current head coach of the latter — but Al Harris isn’t one of them.

It’s not for lack of effort by Quinn to poach Harris as well, though, but having the interview request denied by the Cowboys; in a move that is allowed by the league if the position to be interviewed for is not a promotion.

Subsequently, head coach Mike McCarthy then promoted Harris himself, to the role of assistant head coach in Dallas.

“[It’s] more responsibility,” said Harris ahead of OTAs. “On the day-to-day, I’m still doing the things I’ve been doing since I’ve been here. It’s just added responsibility here and there.”
