BREAKING NEWS: The former Washington commanders head coach predicted to take Cowboys head coach a job to…

The Washington Commanders are a year removed from saying goodbye to Ron Rivera after he led the team for four years.

Rivera did not take a head coaching job this past season, but he could be in line for a fresh new gig in 2025.

Bleacher Report writer Maurice Moton believes that the Cowboys could be a destination for former Commanders head coach Ron Rivera.

“After a nine-year stint with the Carolina Panthers, Rivera won a division title in his first season with the then-Washington Football Team. In the following three years, Washington finished third or fourth in the NFC East while struggling to find a franchise quarterback,” Moton writes.

“In Dallas, Rivera wouldn’t have to worry about the quarterback position, with Dak Prescott entrenched as the starter. He could use his expertise to strengthen the Cowboys defense, which gave up the second-most points and fifth-most yards this past season.

“With the swirling rumors surrounding Colorado head coach Deion Sanders, Rivera would be a conservative option with low buzz. That said, the Cowboys brought in retreads with three of their last four head coaching hires: Mike McCarthy, Wade Phillips and Bill Parcells.”

Rivera, 63, went 26-40-1 during his four seasons with Washington, failing to make the playoffs in each of his last three seasons.

However, Rivera remains one of the most respected people in the profession, and the Cowboys could look to bring him in to give the team a new voice.

The Dallas Cowboys are starting fresh yet again, while they watch the Washington Commanders head to the NFC Championship game with their former defensive coordinator as their head coach.

Washington’s rivalry with Dallas goes back multiple decades — and last year at this time — the Commanders were coming off a four-win season, had just sold the franchise and were looking for a new head coach and general manager.

It felt like a massive rebuild ahead to erase decades of dysfunction, drama and losing under the ownership of Dan Snyder and the toxic culture he built.

The Commanders ultimately hired former 49ers assistant GM Adam Peters, who helped new owner Josh Harris and a team of executives find their next head coach.
