Rod Marinelli Never Thought About Leaving Dallas

Defensive coordinator Rod Marinelli was never close to leaving the Dallas Cowboys.

Marinelli acknowledged his history with Tampa Bay Buccaneers coach Lovie Smith, with whom he worked with in two stops, including a four-year run with the Chicago Bears from 2009-12, but he said he never talked with Smith about a reunion.

Marinelli cited the Jones family, coach Jason Garrett and the players as the top reasons why he chose to remain in Dallas with a three-year deal.

“I just love it here,” Marinelli said as he checked into his hotel at the Pro Bowl on Tuesday. “I love football and this place, it just reeks with tradition and winning and wanting to win, wanting to be the very, very best. I think that’s as exciting as anything.”
