The Washington Commanders are gearing up for some landmark changes this offseason. And for head coach Dan Quinn, his first port of call is one he won't like.
Quinn is a loyal coach. Taking over the defensive play-calling duties from coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. was hard, but necessary. The improvements since have been marginal at best, and the Commanders are in desperate need of quality upgrades to their personnel and fresh ideas on the schematic side.
Most around the league expect Whitt to be fired at season's end. And the flourishing reputation of a former Quinn associate could be the ideal candidate to take his place.
