Commanders finalize their coaching staff, hire ex-Eagles OC Brian Johnson as pass game coordinator

Associated Press  

ASHBURN, Va. — The Washington Commanders finalized their coaching staff Thursday, hiring former Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Brian Johnson and several others. Also working under offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury are tight ends coach David Raih, who came from Tampa Bay, and David Blough, a QB who was on Detroit’s practice squad last season. I think whoever the quarterback is, he’ll be great to be around him and just how he sees the game.” Anthony Lynn left NFC champion San Francisco to be Washington’s run game coordinator and running backs coach, and former 49ers assistant Darryl Tapp is in charge of the defensive line, assisted by Sharrif Floyd. He’s had a tremendous track record with running backs and run schemes and things like that, so that’ll be a big part of his role.” Among the other hires, Tommy Donatell comes from the Los Angeles Chargers to be Washington’s new defensive backs coach with former NFL cornerback William Gay set to assist him.
