Regardless of why Fassel decided to leave Dallas, this is still a significant loss for the Cowboys. Under his guidance, the team has had one of the best special teams units in the NFL, and his departure leaves a substantial void that the new head coach will need to fill.

Fassel was one of Mike McCarthy’s first hires in Dallas in 2020 and helped develop Brandon Aubrey and KaVontae Turpin into All-Pro talents.

Although the battle for Cowboys head coach is still underway, several other coaches are also looking for a new contract. Most notably, Special Teams coach John Fassel decided to leave the Cowboys and take an offer with the Tennessee Titans.

Fassel replaces Colt Anderson, who lasted only one season on the job as special teams coordinator. Fassel will be joined by Rayna Stewart, who followed him from Dallas as assistant special teams coach. The Titans also hired Tony Oden as passing game coordinator and cornerbacks coach on defense. Luke Stocker has been promoted to tight ends coach.

The first of Dallas’ assistant coaches from last season is on the move, as John Fassel is headed to Nashville.

After five seasons as the special teams coordinator with the Dallas Cowboys, John Fassel left to take the same role with the Tennessee Titans. During his time with Dallas, Fassel helped unearth a couple of special teams superstars.

The Dallas Cowboys parted ways with head coach Mike McCarthy after their losing season, and now they say goodbye to their special teams coach John Fassel.

If the Cowboys lose Bryan Anger in free agency there are plenty of cheap rookies to turn to, says @ReidDHanson.

As the team continues its search for a head coach, multiple outlets reported Monday that John Fassel will become the next special teams coordinator for the Tennessee Titans. Fassel spent the past five seasons at the same position in Dallas, serving the entire tenure of former head coach Mike McCarthy.

As the 2025 head coach hiring cycle draws to a close, teams that have recently made changes in that department are filling out their respective staffs.

The Tennessee Titans hired John Fassel as special teams coordinator on Monday; here are five things to know about the new hire.

The Dallas Cowboys have hired Matt Eberflus as their new defensive coordinator and are expected to finalize a deal with Nick Sorensen as the special teams coordinator,
