The Washington Commanders have decided to part ways with head coach Ron Rivera after four seasons, with a coaching record of 26-39-1 before the final game against the Dallas Cowboys. The move was anticipated by various sources, including @RapSheet and @TomPelissero, and was confirmed after Rivera's last game. Despite the team's struggles, Rivera was expected to 'Show Up' and 'Do Their Job' in the Week 18 clash against the Cowboys. Rivera, who had been managing the team for about 3.5 years and had only been coaching in the last 5 weeks, according to his own statements, was scheduled to meet with new owner Josh Harris on Monday, which was likely when he was informed of his firing. The decision comes as the Commanders are expected to undergo a significant overhaul under Harris.
