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.

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.

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

The Dallas Cowboys are losing Mike McCarthy’s guys quickly, underscoring the urgent need for the team to find a new head coach.

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.

The Tennessee Titans are making the move to bring in veteran special teams coordinator John Fassel to run their struggling unit.

The Titans have made a huge upgrade at special teams coordinator, according to multiple reports. Tennessee has hired former Dallas Cowboys special teams coordinator John “Bones” Fassel for the role, which was held last season by Colt Anderson.

The Tennessee Titans are moving on from special teams coordinator Colt Anderson and have hired John Fassel to replace him. There is an outside chance that Anderson is brought back in a lesser role. Fassel is an experienced NFL coach that had been a special teams coordinator since 2008.
