How the Commanders landed on Dan Quinn following an ‘outrageous’ head-coaching search
New York TimesSeeing Adam Peters walking the streets of Mobile, Ala., on this particular Wednesday night, glued to his phone, wasn’t peculiar. Washington’s search committee endured a wild January that saw the Commanders pivot from both Ben Johnson, who decided to remain in Detroit, and Mike Macdonald, who was hired as head coach of the Seattle Seahawks. GO DEEPER Commanders hire Cowboys defensive coordinator Dan Quinn as coach Washington’s ownership entered the coaching search with an open mind and significant support. Quinn was Atlanta’s head coach in the 2016 Super Bowl and the defensive coordinator during Seattle’s back-to-back Super Bowl appearances, including the 2013 “Legion of Boom” champs. Knowing the coordinator pulled out of head-coaching consideration last year, maybe Washington should have moved before former Los Angeles Rams defensive coordinator Raheem Morris became the Atlanta Falcons’ head coach.
