Report: Ron Rivera, Commanders Coaches 'Aligned' on Chase Young, Montez Sweat Trades

The biggest move of the new Washington Commanders regime thus far, the trades of star defensive ends Montez Sweat and Chase Young appears to have been a united organizational decision, according to The Athletic's Dianna Russini.

Russini reported that team owner Josh Harris was informed and involved in both deals ahead of the trade deadline and that coach Ron Rivera was aligned with the Commanders' front office despite losing two of his most important pieces.

Sweat was dealt to the Chicago Bears while Young was sent to the San Francisco 49ers.
