Dan Quinn left powerless as college power targets key Commanders assistant

"Head coach Dan Quinn didn't keep many Ron Rivera holdovers on his staff. Not many Washington Commanders fans were complaining about that, especially given how things unfolded during his disastrous four-year tenure as head coach, which set the franchise back considerably. And now, Quinn could be set to lose one of the trusted assistants who stuck around if a bombshell report is accurate. According to college football analyst Landon Tengwall, Bobby Engram is going to interview for the vacant head coaching gig at Penn State."

"It's not hard to see why this would be an intriguing job opportunity for Engram. It's with his alma mater. They have deep pockets when it comes to recruitment. They have also flattered to deceive in recent years, especially in big games. Having someone leading the charge with strong roots to the college and a proven NFL pedigree could be a risk worth taking if he impresses enough during the interview process."

Dan Quinn did not retain many Ron Rivera holdovers on his coaching staff. Quinn's coaching changes followed a four-year tenure that significantly set the franchise back. Bobby Engram serves as Washington's wide receivers coach, was hired in 2023, and is highly respected within the organization. Engram will interview for the vacant Penn State head coaching position. Penn State represents Engram's alma mater, offers extensive recruiting resources, and has underperformed in big games in recent years. Engram's deep college ties and NFL experience make him an attractive candidate. The Commanders cannot prevent Engram from accepting a Penn State offer and will prepare contingency plans.
