Commanders Expected To Hire Brian Johnson

10 months ago

The Washington Commanders are expected to hire former Philadelphia Eagles offensive coordinator Brian Johnson to a prominent offensive staff role, according to a source. Johnson interviewed for several head-coaching jobs this cycle despite lasting only one year as the Eagles' offensive coordinator. In D.C., he'll join former Arizona Cardinals head coach Kliff Kingsbury, who was hired to lead head coach Dan Quinn's offense in 2024. Johnson will likely serve as Washington's passing-game coordinator. Quinn and Johnson both coached at the University of Florida, but not at the same time, while Kingsbury and Johnson both coached at the University of Houston, but not at the same time. Johnson was the quarterbacks coach for the Eagles in 2021 and 2022 before being promoted to offensive coordinator last year.
