The Washington Commanders search for a new defensive coordinator is heating up, with head coach Dan Quinn facing challenges due to the lack of quality players on the roster. Top candidates like Al Harris and others are being snatched up by other teams, leaving Quinn to play catch-up. Insider John Keim from ESPN highlights the issue, suggesting that the poor roster and past moves by general manager Adam Peters may be deterring big-name coordinators. Quinn might consider up-and-coming coaches like Karl Scott or Joe Cullen as the clock ticks toward roster changes.
