"According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Commanders hope to speak with Brian Flores about their defensive coordinator vacancy. He's attracting head-coaching interest, but his contract with the Minnesota Vikings is up. Depending on how things go, Quinn might want a shot to convince the mastermind to jump ship and join this ambitious project in Washington. To say this would be a home-run hire is understating things."
"There would be several other suitors looking to prise him to be their new defensive coordinator if he made himself available. The Commanders are reportedly among them, but it would take a lot of convincing from Quinn's perspective to make him take the plunge. Flores will have his pick of jobs, and he won't be joining the Commanders if he cannot have an influential say in personnel or run his own scheme."
The Commanders hope to speak with Brian Flores about their defensive coordinator vacancy. He is attracting head-coaching interest while his contract with the Minnesota Vikings is expiring. The Vikings expect Flores to return if he does not secure a top job elsewhere. Multiple teams would pursue Flores for coordinator if he becomes available, and the Commanders are among them. Flores would require an influential role in personnel decisions and full control over his scheme to consider joining. Dan Quinn plans to remain heavily involved in defensive play-calling, which could complicate Flores's potential role.
