Former Cowboys quarterback Troy Aikman likes Scott Linehan has an offensive coach but he is concerned about the continued changes on the Cowboys and the lack of continuity.
The Cowboys are in the process of adding Linehan, the former Detroit Lions offensive coordinator as passing game coordinator and play caller. He has been at the team's Valley Ranch headquarters the past two days participating in meetings. The team has yet to make an official announcement.
Linehan would be the third play caller in as many years for the Cowboys.
"I like Scott. I like Scott as an offensive guy," Aikman said at Super Bowl media day Tuesday. "He’s done a good job at other places he’s been. I think that they’re trying to find their way. There was the thought that last year with the changes that were made on both sides of the ball that there would be improvement, but really there was regression for both units. Now, more changes again. Changes aren’t necessarily bad, but I think there’s something to be said for continuity. But I’ve been a part of teams that had change that really benefitted from that. Hopefully the Cowboys will as well."
