The Cowboys parted ways with Mike McCarthy earlier today, which immediately started the rumors about Sanders. The Las Vegas Raiders had been the team most frequently connected with Sanders, but that seemed to have died down in recent days.

Now with this new Dallas information, they have every right to start panicking.
The next few days will be very interesting for Sanders and everyone in Boulder.
