Head coach Joe Gibbs retired following the 1992 season and named defensive coordinator since 1981, Richie Petitbon, as his successor.
The Redskins’ aging core struggled with injuries while numerous key players (Gary Clark, Wilber Marshall, Martin Mayhew, Jumpy Geathers, and Fred Stokes) left the team via free agency.
Management tried to ease the losses by signing players like Carl Banks, Tim McGee, Al Noga, and Rick Graf, but none had a major impact on the team.
