The Washington Commanders needed as much change as possible at the lower levels of their coaching staff after last season's wildly disappointing 5-12 campaign. Both offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury and defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. have been moved on, as have many of the team's other positional assistants.
In finding their replacements, however, the Commanders didn't have to look very far. Instead of hiring from outside the organization, head coach Dan Quinn chose to promote from within for a multitude of his openings.
It's a bold strategy, and one that might not sit well with fans after how last season went.
