Commanders interview Anthony Lynn for offensive coordinator position
The Washington Commanders added another name to their official interview list for offensive coordinator on Wednesday when San Francisco 49ers assistant head coach/running backs coach Anthony Lynn.
It was reported last week that Washington had an interest in Lynn, but at the time, the 49ers were preparing for the NFC championship game. San Francisco lost to Philadelphia in the NFC title game, and now Lynn is free to interview.
Washington head coach Ron Rivera, who was in California playing golf at Pebble Beach this week, made the trip to the San Francisco area to interview Lynn, according to Ben Standig of The Athletic.
The Anthony Lynn interview today occurred in person with one member from the Commanders: Ron Rivera.
The coach drove from Pebble Beach to the Bay Area to meet with the 49ers RB coach.

Lynn is the sixth known candidate to interview for Washington’s vacant offensive coordinator opening, joining Pat Shurmur, Ken Zampese, Eric Studesville, Thomas Brown and Charles London. The Commanders would like to speak with Chiefs offensive coordinator Eric Bieniemy, who is currently preparing for the Super Bowl.
