In 2018, the Redskins focus on special teams seemed to pay off, and the very good ST performance was part of the winning formula that saw the team win 6 of its first 9 games. At the end of the season, however, Ben Kotwica, the special teams coach, decided to leave Washington, going to work for the Atlanta Falcons. The move was apparently Kotwica’s decision.
His replacement is Nate Kaczor, who spent his previous three seasons coaching — where else? — in Tampa Bay.
Kaczor was the ST coordinator with the Titans from ‘13-’15, and he was with the Jacksonville Jaguars before that.
