Redskins Coaching News: ILB Coach Kirk Olivadotti hired by the Green Bay Packers

The Redskins allowed another coach to leave the building today. Inside Linebackers coach Kirk Olivadotti was given permission to interview with the Green Bay Packers for the same position this week. He has now reportedly been hired for the Packers, and the Redskins have another job to fill on their coaching staff.

This was Olivadotti’s second run with the Redskins. He originally coached for Washington from 2000-2010, coaching special teams, defensive backs, and linebackers at various points. He left to coach linebackers in college at Georgia from 2011-2013. He was hired again by the Redskins in 2014 when Head Coach Jay Gruden took over the team.
