Commanders lose their first coach of the offseason

Washington’s season ended less than one week ago, and we’ve already learned of interest in several of its coaches. Offensive coordinator Kliff Kingsbury had multiple interview requests but declined. Defensive coordinator Joe Whitt Jr. spoke with the Jets in their search for a head coach, while offensive assistants Brian Johnson, Tavita Pritchard and David Blough all interviewed elsewhere.

On Friday, Dan Quinn lost the first member of his coaching staff to another team. Assistant special teams coach John Glenn left Washington to join Pete Carroll’s staff with the Las Vegas Raiders as linebackers coach.

Glenn, 41, spent six seasons with Carroll in Seattle as his linebackers coach from 2018-23. He came to Washington last year due to his previous relationship with Quinn and special teams coach Larry Izzo.

Glenn first joined Seattle and Pete Carroll in 2012 when Dan Quinn was the Seahawks defensive coordinator.
