Washington Commanders move on from DC Joe Whitt

The Kliff Kingsbury news hit first, but defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr is also out in Washington. Dan Quinn took of defensive playcalling from the first-time DC, and now he’s done with the Commanders. Whitt was Quinn’s pass game coordinator/secondary coach when they were with the Cowboys, and he brought him to Washington, along with a promotion. Whitt’s defense has not been good, and was getting blown out for multiple games before Quinn stepped in, slowing the bleeding a little. Injuries this season have been a problem on both sides of the ball, with the defense losing multiple DEs and DBs.
