Randy Jordan's Playing Experience Proves Beneficial In Coaching Career

When Randy Jordan joined the Redskins coaching staff two years ago, he brought with him 10 years of NFL playing experience and 12 years of collegiate and professional coaching knowledge.

That transition is one that players often make to stay close to the game they love, Jordan told “Redskins Nation” host Larry Michael this week, and changing roles from coach to player was a natural progression for his football career.

“I went from basically wanting to know the 'Why' — there was so many times when players they get in their career, I was able to play nine years involved with the NFL, 10 (years), but then all of a sudden I wanted to know why are we running this play”, Jordan said.
