More than five years ago, Cowboys head coach Dave Campo suffered one of the worst indignities that any head coach could experience.  While he was still working as head coach, owner Jerry Jones secretly met with Bill Parcells about replacing him.

And now Campo could be coming back.

Albert Breer of the Dallas Morning News reports that the Jaguars have given the Cowboys permission to interview Campo, which means that the Jaguars won’t be upset to see him leave.  With former Lions and Jets defensive coordinator Donnie Henderson now on the Jacksonville staff in an undetermined role, Campo’s expertise with the defensive backs might no longer be needed, or wanted.

Campo wouldn’t be the first once-fired head coach of a team to return in a lesser capacity.  Former Chiefs coach Gunther Cunningham returned to the team in 2004 as defensive coordinator, and has spent four more seasons there.
