The Kansas City Chiefs made a stunning move on Thursday, announcing that the team has parted ways with general manager John Dorsey. The news was announced a few minutes after the announcement that Andy Reid had signed a contract extension. Suffice to say, Chiefs fans are stunned.
Earlier this offseason, as the San Francisco 49ers were beginning their search for a new general manager, one candidate had been Chiefs executive Chris Ballard. The Chiefs blocked the move, with some speculation that Ballard might have preferred they do that. That was followed by him eventually landing the Indianapolis Colts GM job.
