The Washington Redskins will no longer employ defensive coordinator Jim Haslett.

The team announced this morning that they have "mutually agreed to part ways" with Haslett.

"Jim and I have had discussions over the last few days and have decided that it’s best for everyone that we have a new defensive coordinator," Jay Gruden said in a statement.

Haslett's defense has been up-and-down in recent years.

Former Redskins middle l inebacker London Fletcher recently ripped Haslett.

"Jay and I mutually agreed it's time for the Redskins to have a new defensive coordinator," Haslett said. "I want to than Dan Snyder, Bruce Allen, Gruden and all the players and fellow coaches for their efforts the last five years and I wish them nothing but the best."
