No. Tom Landry's only opportunity as a National Football League head coach was with the Dallas Cowboys from 1960 to 1988. Before that, he pretty much ran the New York Giants' defense as a player-coach in the 1950s.

When hiring a coach or interviewing what constitutes tampering?

If a coach is under contract, permission must be granted from the team the coach is under contract to for an interview to take place. Tampering would be when a team goes behind another team's back, so to speak, to talk to a coach under an existing contract. Teams that are still alive in the playoffs can give permission to a coach to talk to another team. If they don't give permission and another team contacts the coach about another job that would be considered tampering.
