The 1993 Washington Redskins began with the team trying to improve on their 9–7 record from 1992. Head coach Joe Gibbs retired following the 1992 season and the Redskins promoted his defensive coordinator Richie Petitbon to be the head coach. The Redskins’ aging core struggled with injury while numerous key players (Gary Clark Wilbur Marshall Martin Mayhew Jumpy Geathers and Fred Stokes) left the team via free agency.
