The Washington Commanders have finally made their head coaching hire, and they’ve chosen former Dallas Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn. Quinn, known for his expertise in building strong defensive units, is expected to have a significant impact on the team’s roster. With his leadership and motivational skills, he is poised to change the culture of the Commanders from the very beginning.
During the 2023 NFL season, Washington made some trades that resulted in the departure of key defensive players. However, the team has a collection of draft picks that can help fill those gaps in the roster. Despite stepping into a rebuilding situation, Quinn is determined to establish a clear team identity and style of play.
Franchise legend and current senior advisor Doug Williams had nothing but praise for Quinn, expressing his confidence in the new head coach. Williams believes that anyone who works with or plays for Quinn will agree that he is the best choice for the Commanders.
Williams’ endorsement is significant, especially considering that Quinn has yet to make his mark on the team. However, it speaks volumes about Quinn’s reputation and the respect he commands throughout the league. While it may take some time for Washington to become competitive again, many believe that Quinn is the right person to turn things around.
