The team failed to improve on their 9–7 record from 1992. Head coach Joe Gibbs retired following the 1992 season and named defensive coordinator since 1981, Richie Petitbon, as his successor. The Redskins’ aging core struggled with injuries while numerous key players (Gary Clark, Wilber Marshall, Martin Mayhew, Jumpy Geathers, and Fred Stokes) left the team via free agency. Management tried to ease the losses by signing players like Carl Banks, Tim McGee, Al Noga, and Rick Graf, but none had a major impact on the team. The team finished the season with a 4–12 record and missed the playoffs for the first time since 1989.https://www.pro-football-reference.com/teams/was/1993.htm 1993 Washington Redskins Statistics & Players Petitbon was fired at the end of the season.

Until 2023, the season was the only in franchise history that saw no players selected to the Pro Bowl.
