The Washington Commanders have fired offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury and defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Junior after a disappointing season. The team is looking to protect quarterback Jayden Daniels better, potentially shifting to a more balanced offense. Head coach Dan Quinn and general manager Adam Peters are considering coaches from the Kyle Shanahan coaching tree, with Mike McDaniel being a top candidate. Fans and analysts are pressuring Peters to rebuild trust after last years successes faded. The team is also considering Jaguars coordinator Grant Udinski and may lose quarterback coach David Blough to the Lions. Rookie tackle Josh Conerly Junior showed promise, earning praise as a future cornerstone. The Commanders face a pivotal offseason, with flexibility from Quinn, Peters, and Daniels being key to getting back to contention.
