All aTwitter: 15 February 2024 – Boys, we’ve got ourselves a coaching staff in Washington!

A big move for Washington: Commanders are hiring 49ers assistant head coach Anthony Lynn as their run-game coordinator, per league source.

Commanders made a run at Lynn last year, but get him this year. Here’s one reason why: Lynn is close with HC Dan Quinn and GM Adam Peters. pic.twitter.com/Ei8W2H6Upo

Anthony Lynn will not have an “assistant head coach” title in DC like he did in SF, I’m told.

He held that title in Buffalo and San Francisco in the years before and after the 4 years when he was the HC of the Chargers.

I thought Anthony Lynn got a raw deal with the Chargers. He’s another former head coach that has extensive experience coaching RB’s. This was another great hire for a @Commanders staff/front office that’s coming together nicely. Fans should be getting excited. #NFL

Rushing epa/play under Anthony Lynn

I like Lynn’s experience with the run game it’ll be interesting to see what happens though #HTTC pic.twitter.com/hmqRFcqlLQ

Anthony Lynn is about as big a get as you can get for RBC/RGC. Definitely bolsters the OLC hire. This staff is extremely credible, all three units.

Now this is a very interesting hire. Kingsbury historically has been all about the passing game. A run game coordinator that can help him build a foundation and marry the run/pass game could be hugely important to his success. https://t.co/gIeJmOazMJ

No disrespect to his offensive staff in Arizona, but I don’t think Kliff Kingsbury has gotten close to the level of support that he’ll have here in Washington.

Two of the best teams at the NFL Draft in recent years have been the 49ers and Lions. The #Commanders in Adam Peters and Lance Newmark now have a key guy from each team’s draft process.

— Al Galdi (@AlGaldi) February 14, 2024

Lance Newmark was a good hire for Washington IMO. He pushed hard for Kerbey Joseph with Lions back in 2022. They selected him in the 3rd round and he’s been a starter for them ever since pic.twitter.com/L49tqq3NYY
