The Washington Redskins fired Coach Zorn at 3:30 this morning upon arriving home from their road lost in San Diego. An official announcement is expected from the team later today.

Jim Zorn has suffered an embarrassing season in Washington DC. One that saw him stripped of his play calling duties, and the Redskins interviewing and flirting with other coaches while he was still there. Zorn still had another year left on his contract which the Redskins will have to honor.
