The Washington Commanders are reportedly going to fire defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. in the very near future. That seemed inevitable from a long way out, but who comes in to replace him remains undetermined.
According to Dianna Russini of The Athletic, the Commanders have already discussed potential options once Whitt's inevitable fate is sealed. Washington could keep things in-house, but head coach Dan Quinn boasts strong connections around the league. And a notable development could see him return to an old friend looking for work.
Despite guiding a mini-turnaround down the stretch that resulted in a four-game winning streak, the Atlanta Falcons fired head coach Raheem Morris after two seasons.
