The Cowboys are set to begin workouts on April 20, but head coach Brian Schottenheimer noted those are 'voluntary.' Mandatory OTAs are scheduled for mid-June, while training camp will commence in late July.
New Falcons head coach Kevin Stefanski is starting to build his new staff, and his first major hire is a reunion with offensive line coach Bill Callahan, per team reporter Tori McElhaney. Callahan, 69, is one of the most respected OL coaches in the NFL. He has coached for nine different teams, including Stefanski's Browns from 2020 to 2023. In 2024, he followed his son and then-Browns offensive coordinator Brian Callahan, to Tennessee when he was hired as the Titans' head coach.
Eric Studesville was most recently the Miami Dolphins running backs coach on Mike McDaniel's staff. He has been with the Dolphins since 2017, with titles including run game coordinator (2017-20), co-offensive coordinator (2021), and associate head coach (2022-25). Considering how much the Bears head coach respects what McDaniel did as a run-game designer, I can understand why Studesville is someone who might make sense as Chicago's next running backs coach. Plus, Johnson and Studesville worked together in Miami. I imagine that familiarity could be handy.
