Statement from the team:

LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. – The Washington Redskins announced today that they have relieved Head Coach Jay Gruden of his duties with the team. Gruden was informed of the decision early Monday morning by Owner Daniel Snyder and President Bruce Allen.

The team has issued the following statement: Through the first five games of the 2019 season, the team has clearly not performed up to expectations, and we all share in that responsibility. Moving forward we are committed to doing all that we can collectively as an organization to turn things around and give our Redskins fans and alumni a team they can be proud of in 2019 and beyond.

The Redskins will hold a press conference at Redskins Park at 1:00 p.m. ET today.

Gruden was 0-5 this year and made the playoffs once in six seasons. He probably could have helped himself by handing the keys to rookie quarterback Dwayne Haskins, but if we’re being completely honest here, that team ain’t doing nothing until Bruce Allen and Dan Snyder take a hike.

Hail to the Redskins.
