On Thursday, the Kansas City Chiefs suddenly, and without warning, fired general manager John Dorsey. Dorsey was the Chiefs’ GM for the past four years, during which time the team made the playoffs three times and had a winning record every season.
Details of the decision are sketchy at best, but the statement from the Chiefs’ owner, Clark Hunt, said the following:
I notified John that we would not be extending his contract beyond the 2017 season, and after consideration, we felt it was in his best interests and the best interests of the team to part ways now.
