Dan Quinn has reached the stretch that will define his Commanders' future

The Washington Commanders have decided on the future of Dan Quinn's assistant coaching staff, and the verdict probably shouldn't come as a surprise. Both offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury and defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. will not return.

Whitt's exit was all but a given after Quinn demoted him from defensive play-calling duties. The writing was also on the wall for Kingsbury due to a disconnect with the front office.

Now, attention turns to who will replace them in 2026.

The Commanders must nail both these hires. Because if they don't, Quinn will be the next to go.
