Dallas Cowboys make Carlos Polk assistant special teams coach

MOBILE, Ala. — Carlos Polk has been hired as the new assistant special teams coach for the Dallas Cowboys.

Polk was a new face among some of the Dallas Cowboys assistant coaches who watched Monday morning’s Senior Bowl weigh-in at the Mobile Convention Center.

Polk spent last season as an intern for the Cowboys. He was an assistant special teams coach for San Diego from 2010 to 2012. Polk said Monday he’ll have the same title with the Cowboys.

In 2011 and 2012 in San Diego, Polk worked under special teams coordinator Rich Bisaccia, who just finished his first season as the Cowboys’ special teams coordinator.

Polk replaces Chris Boniol, who said earlier this month he and the Cowboys mutually agreed to part ways after his one-year contract had ended. Boniol is in Mobile, Ala., this week at Senior Bowl practices in search of a new gig.

Polk, 36, played eight seasons in the NFL. The former Nebraska linebacker played his first seven seasons in San Diego before playing his last season in the league with the Cowboys in 2008.

But most importantly, the Underground Railroad of San Diego to Dallas continues its livery. I don't get it. Why not get coaches and talent from Super Bowl teams or with some sort of statistical significance. Not just "Jerry sir, if Norv thought it was a good idea, so do I."

I think Polk is from my hometown of Rockford, Il. I don't have anything against him, but I just can't see anything to have for him.

Morris Claiborne is from my hometown and went to my grandfather's highschool. I'm so proud.

Tampa Bay, not Dallas Cowboys, add Carlos Polk as assistant special teams coach
By Rainer Sabin

Carlos Polk won’t be the Cowboys’ assistant special teams coach, after all.

Instead, he will carry out the same role for Tampa Bay.

Polk’s hiring was announced on the Buccaneers’ website Friday. Earlier this week, Cowboys coach Jason Garrett indicated that Polk was a candidate to replace Chris Boniol, who had been the team’s assistant special teams coach before he and the organization agreed to part ways earlier this month.

However, the Cowboys had not finalized a deal with Polk, according to Garrett.

Polk was a Cowboys intern in 2013. From 2010 to 2012, he had been an assistant special teams coach for San Diego.
