On Monday Stephen Ross stepped into the teams media room with the only man who survived the purge on Black Monday. Chris Grier sat next to his boss not as the teams general manager but as the man tasked with turning a perennial mediocre football team into a winning franchise.
Grier dropped the general manager title for the VP of Football Operations title but unlike his predecessor’s’ Mike Tannenbaum and Bill Parcells, Grier will retain the general manager duties. It is a one man show now with no middle man. A part played last year by Grier who did the go-between duties in the middle of Tannenbaum and Adam Gase.
