Dan Quinn and Adam Peters talk to the media after locker room clean outs
The Washington Commanders season is over, but the work always keeps going for GM Adam Peters and HC Dan Quinn. The team earned some scars after losing the NFC title game 55-23 to their division rivals, the Philadelphia Eagles. This is year one of a recalibration of the roster that took them further than anyone realistically predicted.
The Washington Commanders are now in off-season mode, and that includes going to Mobile, Alabama for the Senior Bowl. There will also be a lot of decisions about the current, and future that need to be made before free agency starts in March.

Adam Peters said he didn’t beat Kliff Kingsbury into the building one time this season. Says Kingsbury routinely got to facility at 3 AM:
“He did a fantastic job. He led well. He had great energy. He listened. The performance was outstanding, he was a great play-caller.”

Adam Peters praised Kliff Kingsbury for the job he did this season as OC. Asked if he expects Kingsbury to return as OC (the Saints are still looking for a HC), Peters offered only this: “I’m sure his time is coming soon.”
