"Part of the issue the Commanders have had in the building is the front office meddling with the coaching staff on personnel and which players to use - an ongoing problem dating back to 2024 when they were having success. With the team struggling this year, it reached new heights and there were notable disagreements. Moreover, I have not gotten the impression Dan Quinn wanted to move on from his coordinators."
"All is not what it originally seemed within the Washington Commanders. This is also not the tight-lipped ship of old, as several concerning reports from NFL insiders have surfaced in recent weeks. A reported power struggle is brewing between general manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn. All the enthusiasm from their first-year run to the NFC Championship game is long gone. Their end-of-season presser felt extremely off after a 5-12 campaign."
The Washington Commanders experienced internal turmoil following a 5-12 season that included the firings of coordinators Kliff Kingsbury and Joe Whitt Jr. Front-office meddling in coaching personnel decisions and player usage has been present since 2024 and intensified as the team struggled, producing notable disagreements. A reported power struggle exists between general manager Adam Peters and head coach Dan Quinn, with Quinn reportedly reluctant to part with his coordinators. Public interactions, including an off end-of-season presser, reflected the internal disconnect. The situation creates uncertainty around leadership, personnel control, and roster management heading into 2026.
