Jimmy Dougherty is out as Washington offensive coordinator

Washington offensive coordinator Jimmy Dougherty is out after two seasons on staff and five total under head coach Jed Fish.

Dougherty served as the Huskies offensive coordinator in 2025 and continues to coach the quarterbacks, which he did for the Fish at both Washington and Arizona. Fish will remain Washington’s offensive playcaller.

Washington is set to promote JP Losman, a former NFL quarterback who has been serving as an offensive quality control coach, to quarterbacks coach, a source told ESPN.

Losman joined Washington’s staff in 2025 after three years at Oklahoma. He’s a former first-round draft pick out of Tulane who played five seasons for the Buffalo Bills and later had stops with the Raiders, Seahawks and Dolphins.

“It’s an honor to represent the University of Washington, such a special place,” Dougherty, who also worked with Fish during his stints as an assistant at UCLA and Michigan, wrote in X.

Fish, in his own social media post, thanked Dougherty for his time with the program, writing, “I have worked with Jimmy Dougherty for 7 years and am grateful for his many contributions to our success as an offense and as a team. I want to thank Jimmy and wish him the best in the future.”

Dougherty is in his second stint after coaching wide receivers at Washington from 2009 to 2012.

Washington ranks 17th nationally in scoring offense in 2025. The Huskies will return quarterback Daymond Williams Jr., who briefly announced his intention to enter the transfer portal in January, only to remain with the program.
