Overview
- Multiple outlets report a mutual parting with offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury and the firing of defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. on Tuesday.
- Washington finished 5-12 in 2025 with the offense ranking 22nd in points and yards as quarterback Jayden Daniels appeared in seven games due to injuries.
- Dan Quinn assumed defensive play-calling after 10 games, and the unit still ended last in yards allowed and 27th in points before Whitt’s dismissal.
- Reporters have detailed a disconnect between Kingsbury and general manager Adam Peters and noted differences with Quinn over run-pass balance and long-term direction.
- Daniels publicly praised Kingsbury on Monday, and multiple reports say key offensive players were disappointed by the move as Kingsbury is expected to draw head-coach interview interest, including with the Giants and Titans.
