Dolphins Part Ways With GM Chris Grier, Name Champ Kelly Interim

Stephen A. Smith later told OutKick he stood by calling for Mike McDaniel to be fired.

Overview

  • Team chairman Stephen M. Ross announced a mutual separation with Grier and thanked him for 26 years of service.
  • The team said Kelly takes over immediately and that a search for a permanent general manager is underway.
  • The decision followed a 28-6 loss to the Ravens, and the Dolphins have not announced further coaching changes.
  • On ESPN, Stephen A. Smith questioned why “the brother” was dismissed first and said McDaniel should also be removed.
  • OutKick and Breitbart criticized Smith’s framing, noting McDaniel is biracial, and OutKick reported Smith texted that he meant his comments and knew McDaniel is black.
