Rick Mase of the Washington Post reports with Mike Zimmer staying in Cincinnati, according to the NFL.com, Jim Haslett appears to be the front-runner to serve as the Commanders' defensive coordinator next season.

Haslett, former NFL coach and a respected defensive strategist, was at Commanders Park on Monday, talking with team officials about the possibility of joining coach Mike Shanahan's staff. The news was first reported by Comcast SportsNet's Kelli Johnson and has since been confirmed by multiple team sources. Haslett did not immediately return messages this afternoon, and his agent, Peter Schaffer, had no comment on talks.
