The Washington Commanders have a new coach on their staff, and it is one of the best receivers of the 2000s. Former New England Patriots wide receiver is heading to Landover, where he will have a spot on Dan Quinn's staff, per Mike Reiss. Bobby Engram is the team's current receivers coach, so Welker's official title and role are yet to be determined.
Welker began his coaching career with the Houston Texans in 2017, where he was an offensive assistant through the 2018 season. From 2019-21, he was the wide receivers coach for the San Francisco 49ers before following Mike McDaniel to Miami and taking the same role with the Dolphins from 2022-25.
