Whitt Jr., the new defensive coordinator for the Washington Commanders, came to Ashburn from the Dallas Cowboys, where he was the passing game coordinator and secondary coach.
Five things about the new coordinator are listed below.
⦁ Whitt will direct the Commanders’ plays: Whitt will call the defensive plays for the Commanders in 2024, Quinn said on Monday. “I’ve been greatly impacted by Joe,” the new coach stated. “He knew what good [play] looked like along the way, growing up as a coach’s kid.”
Dallas was considering interviewing Whitt for the position of defensive coordinator following Quinn’s departure for the District. On Monday, the team had an interview set. Whitt chose to take the Commander’s position in its place.
⦁ Whitt and Quinn have a past together; Whitt worked with Quinn with the Atlanta Falcons in 2020. When Quinn was let go by the Falcons in 2020, their first season together came to an end. In 2021, Whitt moved to Dallas to work as Quinn’s defensive coordinator, following his former employer.
