Danny is back from vacation in Scotland, and if it were up to him, Eric Bieniemy would have been named the interim head coach before he returned to the states.
“I would do that today. I would have done it yesterday,” Danny said. “I have no interest in pretending with Ron Rivera. It’s a weird dichotomy where everyone is smiling with their thumbs up, but the instant the clock turns midnight, he’s leaving. The whole thing is weird.”
Grant wouldn’t mind getting a look at Bieniemy as interim head coach this season either, but he believes the Commanders recent moves suggest that they don’t see their offensive coordinator as a serious candidate for Ron Rivera’s eventual replacement.
“It is my opinion that by riding this out with Ron Rivera, and by deciding not to give Bieniemy a chance as interim head coach, I think we now know what we need to know, which is that they are not interested in Bieniemy as their next head coach,” Grant said.
