Andre Carter watched his rise as a coach up close, having been with Jason Tarver when he was his position coach, then his defensive coordinator and then his mentor. So Carter, the former Washington Redskins linebacker, has a simple reason why Tarver should once again be a defensive coordinator.
“He’s just too damned good not to be,” Carter said. “His football IQ is on another level. I’ve seen it before [when playing] with the Patriots for Bill Belichick.”
Whether the Redskins agree will be determined soon, likely within the next week. Tarver is interviewing on Thursday for the vacant defensive coordinator position.
