The Browns completed their interview with former Packers coach Mike McCarthy on Thursday.
Sunday, McCarthy interviewed with the Dallas Cowboys.
Apparently, he won’t be leaving for any more interviews.
According to a report from Fox’s NFL analyst Jay Glazer, he’s not leaving Dallas.

McCarthy has an impressive record at 125-77-2 in 13 years with the Packers, and a Super Bowl ring.
The news comes for the Cowboys less than 12 hours after they parted ways with head coach Jason Garrett.
What’s Next For The Browns?
It was reported that the Browns had a great interview with Mike McCarthy and that he was considered a top candidate for the job.
Now, all eyes will be on another reported top candidate for the job in Josh McDaniels.
Since the Patriots lost the Titans on Saturday, McDaniels was reported to start interviewing with teams on Monday.
Will the McCarthy hire in Dallas accelerate the Browns effort to make McDaniels an offer if he is their guy sooner rather than later?
It is reported that the Patriots do expect Josh McDaniels to leave if he gets an offer to be a head coach.
If McDaniels is the guy for the Browns, the clock is ticking.
Way to go Cleveland.! I may be old school and go by by what my gut tells me but the Browns should have hired Mike McCarthy when they had the chance.The man can flat out coach!. Letting a computer tell you who to hire is just plain stupid.
DePodesta came to Berea from Oakland ,Ca where he and his Moneyball theories went over like a lead balloon . Sure the Oakland A’S won 20 games in a row but what have they done since…0 ! They haven’t even come close to winning a World Series since winning a World Series since way back in 1989.
Jimmie H…the owner of the Browns made a huge mistake in first getting rid of John Dorsey…then he turns around and turns the hiring process to analytics.
So lets just wait and see if Jimmie H “gets it right ‘.
I knew he wasn’t going to come to Cleveland. I had a feeling McCarthy was going to wait until a more lucrative team came along. And who doesn’t want to coach for “America’s Team”? But seriously, I think McCarthy would have been a great fit for us, sucks that he’s going to the Cowboys.
Anyway, we got some good candidates to look into yet, so it’s not a big loss. We’ll find someone.
