Against all odds, the Washington Commanders are moving on to the NFC Championship Game.
Jayden Daniels only needed one season to do what some quarterbacks can never accomplish, and this might be just the beginning of an even bigger journey.
That’s why Kliff Kingsbury might not be on the move right now.
In his recent appearance on The Pat McAfee Show, ESPN insider Adam Schefter revealed that Kingsbury wasn’t in a hurry to be a head coach again.

Schefter stated that, with the Arizona Cardinals still paying him his head coaching salary, his relationship with Jayden Daniels, and his previous head coaching experience, he will not rush anything.
He said that if the right opportunity came along, he’d consider it.
Otherwise, he won’t force anything.
Schefter revealed that Kingsbury won’t interview with any teams until after his playoff run with the Commanders is over.
He adds that most head coaching vacancies might be filled by then, even if they lose to the Philadelphia Eagles this weekend.
Kingsbury is building something special in the nation’s capital, and he’s just getting started.
The Commanders organization clearly values him, and he’s developed a strong rapport with both Dan Quinn and his quarterback.
Although he’s still very young, he knows what it takes to be an NFL head coach.
He might have several more opportunities to lead his own team in the future.
For now, he’s only focused on getting past the Eagles and packing his bags for the Super Bowl.
