Reggie McKenzie out as Raiders GM

Recommended Posts

Quote

Raiders fired GM Reggie McKenzie.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports McKenzie was given the option to stay on the rest of the season, but he decided to walk away now. Despite Jon Gruden saying all of the right things when he was hired, this pairing never seemed likely to last. For better or worse, Gruden will now build the front office and scouting department in his image. As for McKenzie, it was not always smooth sailing, but his drafts in 2014 (Khalil Mack, Derek Carr) and 2015 (Amari Cooper) landed three premier players -- two of which were traded away this year seemingly with little input from McKenzie -- and set up Oakland's surprising 12-4 run through the 2016 season, the year in which McKenzie was also named NFL Executive of the Year. It is possible McKenzie lands another high-profile job in the near future.

Life comes at you fast.
