Ron Rivera will not be out of work for long based on how things are looking.

The Redskins got rid of Jay Gruden after an 0-5 start and have been coached by interim head coach Bill Callahan, under whom they went 3-8. They finished the season with a 47-16 loss to Dallas.
Rivera was fired by the Panthers earlier this month during his ninth season on the job. He went 76-63-1 as Carolina’s head coach, including a Super Bowl appearance.
