NFL Notes: Bill Cowher, Chargers, Cowboys, Jets, Rams

Bill Cowher

• Former Steelers HC Bill Cowher said during an interview with Sirius XM NFL Radio that he won’t be coaching next year.

“It does get your blood going, but no I’m in a really good place,” Cowher said. “I really enjoy my job with CBS.
