Bill Callahan Won’t Return As Part Of Ron Rivera’s Staff

John Keim of ESPN is reporting that Redskins interim HC Bill Callahan won’t return to Washington as part of new HC Ron Rivera’s coaching staff. 

It would not be surprising to see Callahan connected to offensive line jobs around the league in the coming weeks. 

Callahan, 63, began his coaching career as an assistant at Illinois back in 1980. He later took his first NFL coaching job with the Eagles as their offensive line coach in 1995.

The Raiders hired Callahan as their head coach in 2002 and he spent two years in the role before being fired after the 2003 season. From there, he had brief stints with Nebraska, the Jets and Cowboys before the Redskins hired him as their offensive line coach in 2015. He was promoted to interim head coach after Washington fired Jay Gruden.

Under Callahan, the Redskins were 3-8 (27.3 percent) this season.
