The Washington Commanders finish their disappointing season at home on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. For head coach Ron Rivera, it's also probably a goodbye.

Washington is expected to part ways with Rivera on Monday, per sources, ending his tenure after four seasons.

The Commanders enter the regular-season finale with a 4-12 record -- including 0-5 within the NFC East -- and have lost seven games in a row entering today. New owner Josh Harris planned to let the entire season play out before making a decision, and sources say nothing has been finalized or discussed with the staff. But as the losses have piled up, the decision has become clearer.

Harris hasn't commented publicly since Nov. 24, when he issued a statement following the firing of defensive coordinator Jack Del Rio saying he feels "exactly how our fans feel today: disappointed and frustrated." The Commanders are 0-4 since then. And it always made sense for Harris, who finalized his purchase of the team in July, to put his stamp on the football operation after the season.

The Commanders job is more attractive than it's been in decades, thanks to competent ownership, some building blocks on the roster, a potential top-three draft pick and extra draft capital to potentially package and target a new franchise QB. That could appeal to the most coveted candidates in this hiring cycle, such as Lions offensive coordinator Ben Johnson, who is expected to have multiple options.

The status of general manager Martin Mayhew is also in doubt, sources say, though that decision might not be made immediately.

Expect the Commanders to explore a modified front office structure that
