As a Redskins fan, I am ecstatic. It's also been confirmed that he's hired Jack Del Rio to be the defensive coordinator.
The big thing for me, and most Skins fans, was culture. Despite what former Redskins GM Bruce Allen said a couple months ago, the culture was not "damn good". You have no idea how good it feels to say "former Redskins GM Bruce Allen". Getting rid of him was literally the best thing that could've happened this off-season. Snyder still is in no way a fan favorite, but so far this off-season is off to a good start. Some things are still up in the air though. Who will Rivera keep on staff? Now that Allen is gone, will Trent Williams come back? Will Chase Young declare for the draft? All of these questions will be answered soon, but the fanbase as a whole is breathing a major sigh of relief.
