From the Associated Press:

IRVING, TX -- San Diego Chargers defensive coordinator Wade Phillips today interviewed with the Dallas Cowboys about replacing retired coach Bill Parcells.

Phillips is a former head coach at Denver and Buffalo who also had interim stints in New Orleans and Atlanta.

He says he had a "very encompassing talk" with Cowboys owner Jerry Jones.

Jones also plans to talk to San Francisco offensive coordinator Norv Turner and New Orleans defensive coordinator Gary Gibbs.

Both are ex-Dallas assistants.

The Cowboys late this week added former Dallas quarterback Jason Garrett to their coaching staff in an unspecified role, but said he'd remain a candidate for the head coaching job.

The team said Garrett's title wouldn't be determined until a Parcells replacement was hired, but he's expected to be at least offensive coordinator.
