Bill Callahan decided to explore other options rather that re-sign with the Cowboys and it didn’t take long for him to find a new job.

Ed Werder of ESPN reports that Callahan has agreed to a three-year deal to join Jay Gruden’s Redskins staff. It’s a “very lucrative” deal, according to Werder.

There’s no word on Callahan’s official title, but the offensive line will likely be his chief responsibility after a career spent working in that area. Callahan also had the offensive coordinator title in Dallas, but Washington already has Sean McVay in that role. Chris Foerster, who coached the offensive line in 2014, has reportedly been given permission to interview for the same job with the Bills.

It won’t be Callahan’s first time working with a member of the Gruden family. He was the offensive line coach under Jon Gruden with the Raiders from 1998-2001 and then replaced Gruden as head coach in 2002. He took the Raiders to the Super Bowl that year, but lost to Gruden and was later accused of sabotaging the team in that game by former Raiders wideouts Jerry Rice and Tim Brown.
