"Brian Flores is no longer an option after he signed a new deal with the Minnesota Vikings. Other strong candidates are being considered elsewhere, and some strong franchises are still seeking the right hire. The Commanders have bided their time up to now, but Quinn would be wise to settle on a preferred option with free agency and the draft on the not-too-distant horizon."
""Where would you rather go right now to coach defense, Green Bay or here? Here, you have to build it. Is that the best spot for all these coordinators? Give me a guy who has taken a defense and turned it around versus inherited and won something. So, I think that's something you have to look at.""
"The Commanders will speak with Al Harris, who has close ties to Quinn and once said he would follow the coach wherever he goes. He's also spoken to the Green Bay Packers, who need a fresh defensive guru after Jeff Hafley left to become the Miami Dolphins' head coach."
The Washington Commanders have not yet hired a defensive coordinator. Brian Flores signed with the Minnesota Vikings and is no longer available. Other coordinator candidates are pursuing opportunities with other franchises, and some strong teams still seek the right hire. The Commanders plan to interview Al Harris, who has close ties to head coach Dan Quinn and has also drawn Green Bay interest. Green Bay and similar teams offer more attractive defensive situations due to stronger rosters. A relative lack of defensive quality makes the Commanders a less appealing destination, so Quinn should settle on a preferred option before free agency and the draft.
