The Dallas Cowboys are going to be getting some inside knowledge. It was announced on Thursday that tight ends coach Lunda Wells is set to serve as the West Team head coach for the upcoming East-West Shrine
Bowl. It was also announced that Aaron Whitecotton will be the defensive coordinator for the East Team.
It should be noted, for those unaware, that the Shrine Bowl is played at The Star so the Cowboys have a baked in advantage in that sense. Still though, having Wells and Whitecotton with the opportunity to directly interact with the players throughout his team will be a bit of information that the team can use ahead of the NFL draft.
When it comes to the draft there is no amount of information that is too much. It is at all-star games like this that certain things can be learned or gleaned that could serve as a deciding factor for the Cowboys. The Shrine Bowl will take place on January 27th and will be televised on NFL Network for those interested.
