Clark Hunt strode to the microphone Monday and wasted no time addressing the elephant in the room.
OK, so maybe he didn’t exactly address it. More like he generally talked about it.
But really, that was good enough. Because after a month of silence from the Chiefs regarding their stunning decision to relieve general manager John Dorsey of his duties last month, Monday’s 30-minute news conference headlined by the team’s chairman and CEO might as well have been an oasis in the desert for Chiefs fans.
While Hunt didn’t explain in detail his rationale for firing Dorsey, he did speak in enough generalities about the decision to paint a picture of a front office in need of change.
