"Change is never easy. Certainly not for Washington Commanders head coach Dan Quinn, who values loyalty highly and deeply appreciates every coach or player who gives their all to the cause. However, with the Commanders looking to make the necessary improvements to get back on track, there is no room for emotional attachment. With Daronte Jones looking to shake things up defensively, the new coordinator should be given the freedom to make the changes needed."
"Kerrigan was one of the very few staff members who were retained by Quinn when he got the head-coaching job. He's popular among the players and is obviously held in the highest regard by fans. Disposing of someone with such deep connections to the franchise would be a drastic and difficult move. At the same time, this is a results-driven business, and the pass-rush has been nowhere near good enough in recent years."
Dan Quinn values loyalty and deeply appreciates coaches and players who commit fully. The Washington Commanders are pursuing defensive changes after hiring Daronte Jones as defensive coordinator. Jones wants a coach to oversee the front seven with emphasis on improving pass-rushing. The current defensive staff remains fluid as the team searches for candidates. Ryan Kerrigan serves as assistant linebackers coach and pass-rush specialist and remains popular with players and fans after being retained by Quinn. Removing Kerrigan would be drastic given his franchise ties, but the team faces pressure to improve a pass rush that has underperformed in recent years.
