Dallas Cowboys passing game coordinator/defensive backs coach Kris Richard is about to embark on one of the busiest 24-hour stretches of his life.

After coaching the Cowboys against the Seattle Seahawks in Saturday night's wild-card game, Richard will then get ready for three head-coaching interviews on Sunday. Richard is set to interview with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, New York Jets and Miami Dolphins, league sources told ESPN.

All three teams have an interest in speaking with the coach whom players such as former Seahawks cornerback Richard Sherman have vouched for.

Sunday was the only day that Richard could squeeze in the interviews, so all three will take place that day, back-to-back-to-back, before Richard either gets back to his offseason or prepares to coach in a divisional playoff game.
