Commanders' wildcard DC candidate everyone forgot officially enters the mix
"The Washington Commanders moved swiftly to make David Blough their new offensive coordinator. This was a risky in-house promotion for someone who was being coveted by other franchises. It also maintains some semblance of continuity around quarterback Jayden Daniels, another important element of the equation that cannot be overlooked. Washington is taking longer to find a new defensive coordinator after inevitably parting ways with Joe Whitt Jr."
"According to reports, the Commanders have interviewed Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson. While the AFC South club struggled once again in 2025, the coach continues to bolster his reputation as an exceptional talent developer who can do more with less. Several others are also in contention. Still, nobody should be complaining too much if Washington went down this route."
Washington promoted David Blough to offensive coordinator to preserve continuity around quarterback Jayden Daniels while extending the search for a defensive coordinator after parting with Joe Whitt Jr. Head coach Dan Quinn is overseeing the defensive search and may be waiting for higher-profile candidates. The team interviewed Tennessee Titans defensive coordinator Dennard Wilson, a Maryland native with experience across multiple franchises and praised as a developer of young talent. Wilson helped elevate players like Jeffrey Simmons and is seen as someone who can do more with less. Washington needs fresh defensive ideas and a personnel overhaul.
