The Washington Commanders have made a decision on head coach Ron Rivera, according to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini.

Rivera has coached the team to a 4-9 record that has them holding up the NFC East and, per the respected NFL insider, will not get an opportunity to turn things around under the new management in 2024. 

Russini cites team sources she claims told her the head coach and his staff will be fired at the end of the current term, something which was apparently known when Josh Harris took over as the team’s new owner.

“At this point it’s understood around the building based on multiple people I have spoken with that Ron Rivera and some front office members will be fired,” she wrote. “Since acquiring the team, new owner Josh Harris has had the vision to keep Rivera in place through the end of the season, then move on. It’s really not a secret anymore.”

Rivera is one of a few coaches expected to be out of a job at the end of the season, with the New England Patriots also likely to move on from Bill Belichick.

“A similar picture is taking shape in New England, where most believe at the end of this season there will be a mutual parting of ways,” Russini added on that note.
