In December of 2015, Mike Tannenbaum decided he and Dennis Hickey couldn’t both work atop the Dolphins organization so he unceremoniously dismissed the general manager the Saturday before the season-finale.
And now it’s Tannenbaum’s turn.
He will be told his time with the Miami Dolphins is over before the end of next week and that will bring to a close his four seasons with the team.
And if you’re asking why exactly, no one that’s talking is absolutely certain owner Stephen Ross’s reasoning for the move. If you’re thinking it’s the team’s inability to make the playoffs the past two seasons, that could be part, but not all of it.
