"The Washington Commanders are currently devising their shortlists to replace Joe Whitt Jr. and Kliff Kingsbury. Head coach Dan Quinn removed both coordinators from the franchise following a dismal 2025 campaign. It was a drastic measure, but what comes next is even more important. These hires have to go well for Quinn. Reports of disconnect and upheaval behind the scenes are a far cry from how things appeared this time last year."
"There has been one confirmed interview so far. According to ESPN's Todd Archer, the Commanders have requested permission to speak with Lunda Wells about their offensive coordinator vacancy. He's currently the Dallas Cowboys' tight ends coach. He was on the staff when Quinn was the defensive coordinator, so there's an already established relationship. And the coach thinks enough of him to find out a little more about what he could potentially bring to the table."
The Washington Commanders dismissed defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. and offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury after a dismal 2025 campaign. Head coach Dan Quinn is leading a search for replacements and must make successful hires to avoid further organizational upheaval. Kingsbury is drawing interest from other teams, with interviews scheduled with the Tennessee Titans and Baltimore Ravens. The Commanders requested permission to interview Dallas Cowboys tight ends coach Lunda Wells for the offensive coordinator role. Wells worked on Quinn's staff previously and has been involved in Cowboys game planning across six seasons. Fan reaction was underwhelmed and the search urgency increased following other coaching moves.
