**Dan Steinberg, another employee exiting The Washington Post, is joining The Atlantic as an NFL managing editor.** 

An [announcement](https://www.nytco.com/press/dan-steinberg-joins-the-athletic/?ref=capitolcommunicator.com) about his move to The Atlantic states: “Dan has spent his entire 25-year career at The Washington Post, where he first was hired as a part-time news aide and preps writer, but, in his words, “refused to go away.” He followed those roles by becoming a trend-setter in the sports blog space for The Post, founding the hugely popular D.C. Sports Bog in 2006 (@dcsportsbog is, in fact, still his X handle). He became a columnist in 2014 and an editor in 2018\. For the last year he has supervised NFL coverage for The Post, and he also has in recent years edited award-winning work by writers that include Sally Jenkins, Candace Buckner and Jerry Brewer.”

At The Atlantic, Steinberg will be overseeing its coverage of the Washington Commanders.
