FINAL Arrangement: RAIDERS NATION Signs a 32-Year-Old Player for a Whopping $900 Million to Replace…
With the addition of Dan Quinn, the coaching staff of the Washington Commanders has continued to improve. Ken Norton Jr., a former defensive coordinator for the Seattle Seahawks and Las Vegas Raiders, has joined Washington as the team’s linebackers coach, according to Tom Pelissero.
The Commanders had a 4-13 record at the end of the 2023–24 season. Regretfully, the squad finished last in the NFC East. With Ken Norton Jr.’s defensive expertise, though, the future seems promising for this team.
Norton, a former All-Pro linebacker, just left the UCLA Bruins to become a coach. He was the Seahawks’ LB coach for four years before to that. After that, he was a defensive coordinator for the Raiders for two years before returning to Seattle in 2018–2021.
Washington made this move soon after Joe Whitt Jr. was chosen by the team to be DC. Whitt and Norton can collaborate to strengthen a Commander’s defense that is having trouble.
In Fox Sports’ 2023 NFL Regular Season squad Defense Rankings, the squad came in last. 388.9 total offensive yards were allowed by Washington on average per game. However, the team has talented members to collaborate with.
