The Dallas Cowboys hired Arizona Cardinals offensive line coach Klayton Adams as their new offensive coordinator, the team announced on Saturday morning.He replaces Brian Schottenheimer, who last month was promoted to head coach after the Cowboys parted ways with Mike McCarthy following the season.The hiring of Adams would seem to indicate an increased focus on the running game in Dallas for next season. Adams, 41, worked the past two seasons for the Cardinals after spending four years with the Indianapolis Colts as an assistant offensive line coach (2019-20) and tight ends coach (2021-22).Under Adams, the Cardinals ranked seventh in the league in 2024 in rushing yards (144.2 per game) and 11th in total offense. The Cowboys, meanwhile, ranked 27th on the ground at 100.3 ypg and had the fewest rushing touchdowns in the NFL with six.One of the names most frequently connected to the Cowboys when it comes to the NFL draft in April is Boise State running back Ashton Jeanty, who led the nation with 2,601 rushing yards and 29 rushing touchdowns last season while finishing second in the Heisman Trophy voting.Dallas has the 12th pick in the first round after finishing 7-10 in 2024.
