"The Washington Commanders are taking their time before appointing a new defensive coordinator. Head coach Dan Quinn wants to find an experienced play-caller to replace Joe Whitt Jr., who looked out of his depth and was let go as expected once the campaign concluded. Several big names have been brought in for interviews. Others will also be considered. However, the Commanders' potential primary target may suddenly be out of reach thanks to a concerning development elsewhere."
"Stefanski has also done his homework on Jeff Ulbrich with a view to keeping him on as defensive coordinator, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. The Falcons would like to keep him around, which represents a blow to the Commanders if this scenario becomes reality. "[Kevin] Stefanski has done research on potentially working with Falcons DC Jeff Ulbrich in Atlanta, per sources. Owner Arthur Blank would like to keep Ulbrich, who would be a top coordinator candidate on the market if available." Jeremy Fowler"
"Most beat writers believe Ulbrich is high on Quinn's shortlist. He hasn't had the chance to speak with him yet, due to the previous uncertainty in Atlanta. And if the Falcons opt to retain his services, the Commanders have to look elsewhere. This is notable for Washington's DC search. Ulbrich, who previously worked under Quinn, is thought to be one of if not the top candidate here. With the Browns apparently looking to keep Jim Schwartz, Stefanski might not have his recent DC available."
The Washington Commanders are delaying the hire of a new defensive coordinator while head coach Dan Quinn seeks an experienced play-caller to replace Joe Whitt Jr. Several candidates have been interviewed and others will be considered. The Atlanta Falcons hired Kevin Stefanski as head coach and Stefanski has researched keeping Falcons defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich in Atlanta. Falcons ownership would like to retain Ulbrich, which could remove a top candidate from Washington's market. Ulbrich previously worked under Quinn and is widely regarded as a leading option if he becomes available.
