Top 12 Candidates For Next Washington Redskins Head Coach In 2020 - Ron Rivera At Top Of List

So who are the top candidates to replace Jay Gruden as the Redskins head coach? We’ve got the list of top Redskins targets and some realistic options to replace Gruden in 2020.

There are some notable names the Redskins could hire, including those currently without jobs: Mike McCarthy, Marvin Lewis, Urban Meyer and Ron Rivera. Is that the route the Redskins should go?

The Redskins must focus on QB Dwayne Haskins and there are some current offensive minds who could help him. That includes current OC Kevin O’Connell, by the way. Others are Greg Romab, Josh McDaniels and Eric Bieniemy.
