Often forgotten in the midst of the bevy of former-Panther hirings, is the fact that Ron Rivera did keep a couple of coaching hold overs from the former regime. One of the coaches Rivera thought highly enough to retain was Special Teams Coordinator Nate Kaczor.
Kaczor seems to be playing an increasingly engaged role in the team - or at least getting more attention than he has historically - and playing a critical part in Washington’s team-building efforts.
GM Martin Mayhew just said fifth-round safety Darrick Forrest was one of Nate Kaczor's top special teamers in the entire draft.
