Fans are bracing themselves for changes across the Washington Commanders this offseason. And this won't just be on the playing side.
Rumors are swirling that the Commanders are also planning significant alterations to the coaching staff. Defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. will likely be fired, and speculation is rising that Washington will move on from offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury — whether he gets a head-coaching job or not — due to a disconnect behind the scenes with general manager Adam Peters.
That's going to cause a ripple effect, and smoke is rising about run game coordinator/running backs coach Anthony Lynn being among the first to depart once Washington's regular-season finale at the Philadelphia Eagles is in the books.
