Texas football RB coach Tashard Choice reportedly set to interview with Dallas Cowboys-kid

Texas football assistant coach Tashard Choice is reportedly a candidate to join Brian Schottenheimer’s staff with the Dallas Cowboys.

According to longtime Cowboys reporter Clarence Hill, Choice is expected to interview with Dallas on Saturday.

Choice has served as the Longhorns’ running backs coach for the last three seasons. Within that span, he has coached three different NFL running backs in Bijan Robinson, Roschon Johnson and Jonathon Brooks.

Jaydon Blue, part of Texas’ backfield-by-committee approach in 2024, could become the next Choice disciple to hear his name called in the NFL draft.

Before arriving at Texas, Choice coached at Georgia Tech, where he tutored Jahmyr Gibbs and Jordan Mason.

Choice appeared in 88 NFL games from 2008-13, including 54 with the Cowboys. The Dallas organization also helped kickstart his post-playing career by hiring him as a coaching intern before he caught on as an assistant at North Texas.

He’s proven a valuable contributor to Texas’ recruiting efforts, too, with 247Sports crediting him with helping reel in the likes of CJ Baxter and Ryan Wingo.

It’s been an uneventful offseason as it related to staff turnover for the Longhorns, who are coming off an appearance in the College Football Playoff semifinals. If Choice does indeed leave for the Cowboys, he would be the first Texas assistant coach to depart.
