Rivera said each of the players Washington took tonight are the right character fit for the team. They have position flexibility as well, which everyone knows is a valued trait for Rivera.

Props to @PeteHaileyNBCS
for inquiring about the origin of Ron Rivera's love for position flex.

Rivera said it started when he was the defensive coordinator under Norv Turner in San Diego in the late 2000s.— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) May 1, 2021

Rivera's love for position flexibility goes back to his days coaching for Norv Turner with the Chargers.
