"Washington Redskins assistant coaches Steve Jackson and Keenan McCardell will not return next season, two people familiar with the situation said Wednesday night.

Attempts to contact Jackson and McCardell were unsuccessful. Tony Wyllie, Redskins senior vice president, declined comment.

Jackson, Washington's longtime safeties coach, and McCardell, the Redskins' wide receivers coach the past two seasons under Shanahan, were informed Monday they would not be offered new contracts. Jackson and McCardell, the sources said, were not among several assistants who received contract extensions at the beginning of the season."
