Kingsbury declined to conduct any interviews while the Commanders remained in the postseason, where they lost on Sunday to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC championship. The Saints are the only NFL team still seeking to hire a head coach and had requested an interview with Kingsbury that he will not take.

The Commanders' first-year offensive coordinator has rediscovered the joy of playcalling and building relationships.

Per FOX Sports' Jordan Schultz, Kingsbury has elected to run it back with the Commanders next season following the team's stunningly quick year-over-year turnaround. Washington went from having a 4-13 record in 2023 to reaching the NFC Championship Game roughly 12 months later, partly thanks to the play-caller.
