"Kingsbury was let go in a stunning development. The Commanders are now looking for a new offensive coordinator to work alongside quarterback Jayden Daniels. For someone who was expected, and still could, generate head coaching interest this offseason, it's a damnining indictment of a clash of opinions in the building. Commanders shockingly fire Kliff Kingsbury after Dan Quinn meeting goes wrong"
"Dianna Russini of The Athletic reported a disconnect between Kingsbury and general manager Adam Peters. The front-office leader distanced himself from this during his end-of-season presser, leaving the call down to Quinn. Now, the former Arizona Cardinals head coach is out just one season after helping Washington reach the NFC Championship game. Kingsbury took some heat for his play-calling at times this season."
The Washington Commanders dismissed defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. and offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury following a disappointing 2025 season. A reported disconnect between Kingsbury and general manager Adam Peters culminated in a meeting with head coach Dan Quinn after which Kingsbury was fired. Kingsbury had helped Washington reach the NFC Championship game the previous season but faced criticism for play-calling amid significant injury problems. Dan Quinn is poised to remake the coaching staff ahead of 2026, placing many existing coaches in jeopardy and leaving quarterback Jayden Daniels without his offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach.
