“Dan has rightfully earned a reputation as one of the NFL’s top defensive minds, building tough, explosive and dynamic teams that compete hard. But most importantly, he is an incredible leader who brings out the best in his players, coaches and staff. We heard that from everyone we spoke to throughout this process, and it was reaffirmed when we discussed with Dan our shared vision for building a winning franchise. By adding such a respected, accomplished and determined leader as head coach, we’ve taken another important step in our mission of delivering a championship-caliber team to our fans. I’m incredibly excited for our future and to welcome Dan and his wife Stacey to the Commanders family.”
