The Oakland Raiders fired Reggie McKenzie on Monday, and any firing is going to bring rumblings about causes. This firing is primarily about Jon Gruden asserting control of the organization, but we still get different specifics brought up to justify the decision.
The Athletic reporter Vic Tafur opened up with some of what his sources believe led to the firing beyond just “Jon Gruden.” There are various issues, but one of note for 49ers fans is the Khalil Mack trade.
49ers general manager John Lynch has said he thinks the 49ers offered a better deal than what the Raiders eventually got from the Bears.
