3 DAYS AGO - Kirby Lee-USA TODAY Sports
Ron Rivera is making big changes It’s not official yet, but the number of reporters saying Kyle Smith is on his way out of the Washington Football Team’s front office continues to grow. Yesterday Chris Russell talked about the team parting ways with Smith, and potential interest from other teams. John Keim recently said it looked like Smith was going to leave so there could be a clean break from the Bruce Allen era. Ben Standig also said he believes Kyle Smith is out.
This morning Jason La Canfora added his voice to the list, but he is hearing that the team has moved on from Kyle Smith, and they are also going to be making significant changes to the college scouting staff. With Smith likely leaving, and a new GM(Martin Mayhew) and new Executive Vice President of Personnel/Football Operations(Marty Hurney) hired, changes were expected. Washington’s college scouting staff has been together for a while, but with Smith out, a huge shakeup is Collapse

4 DAYS AGO - Kyle Smith is leaving the building It has been a big day for Ron Rivera and the Washington Football Team. The organization announced the additions of Martin Mayhew as the new GM, and Marty Hurney as the Executive Vice President of Personnel/Football Operations. The organization will continue to be coach-centric, which was announced when Ron Rivera was hired over a year ago. Mayhew and Hurney will report to Rivera, but this thruple is being labeled as a collaborative group going forward.
This is a happy day for Rivera, Mayhew, and Hurney, but there is another executive who will reportedly be leaving to make way for the more experienced executives. Kyle Smith has been rumored to be on his way out now that Ron Rivera has settled in. Smith has been with the team for 11 years, and has been in charge of Washington’s drafts for the last few years. Smith was promoted to Vice President of Player Personnel by Rivera after spending 3 years as Washington’s Director of College Scouting.

Marty gets a title The second official announcement of the week is here, and it could start another set of moves that have been expected to happen since the GM search started. Marty Hurney is reuniting with Ron Rivera, but will have a different role for their third pairing. He was the Carolina Panthers GM who hired Rivera in 2011, and started his second stint in 2017.
Hurney was originally going to be the Washington Footnall Team’s New GM according to multiple reports, but those plans changed. Martin Mayhew was named the new GM, and now Hurney has been given the title of Executive Vice President of Football/Player Personnel. Hurney and Mayhew were Rivera's top choices for the front office, and they will both report to him in this new power structure.

The day after Washington lost its Wildcard game to the Buccaneers on January 9th, Head Coach Ron Rivera declared his intentions to meet with owner Dan Snyder and discuss with him his two top priorities: Hiring a General Manager and getting the QB situation “established.”
Ron Rivera says QB is "one of the most important things that we need to get done and get established" going forward.— Kyle Stackpole (@kylefstackpole) January 10, 2021
At the end of the day, these two priorities go hand in glove, and the general manager(s) expected to pursue the QB solution needs to be “on the same page” with Coach Rivera’s approach. The last several days have made it clear that a failure to “get on board” with that vision will be grounds for separation from the organization.
Late last year, as the season was winding down and free agency and the draft could be seen in the distance, the local press started asking Rivera questions about Vice President of Collapse

Chazz Surratt’s college football career has been anything but predictable. After dominating high school football in North Carolina with his brother, Sage, Chazz was recruited to UNC as a quarterback. Unfortunately, he missed most of his sophomore year with torn wrist ligaments. After Mack Brown was hired as UNC’s new head coach, Surratt made the decision to switch to linebacker in order to increase his chances of going to the NFL. Despite the unorthodox move, Surratt excelled at the position. He was named All-ACC First Team in both seasons playing linebacker and was runner-up ACC Defensive Player of the Year in 2019. He’s still a work in progress, but his background as a quarterback and Collapse

Early last season, Ron Rivera added Jennifer King to his staff as a full-year coaching intern, working with running backs coach Randy Jordan. The team had mixed rushing success in 2020 under new offensive coordinator Scott Turner, but new additions Antonio Gibson and JD McKissic both looked like promising, dual-threat options moving forward in the backfield.

On this edition of the Cult of Colt, we ponder who’s next under center for the Burgundy & Gold The beauty of the NFL is that even when your team isn’t playing, there are very few times of the year that there isn’t something worth talking about. Despite making a playoff run, after falling in the SUPER Wild Card round, the Washington Football Team finds themselves in one of those times where there’s simply just not that much going on. Sure, there are front-office machinations and the far too early pre-draft talk, but after a long and stressful season, albeit one that was successful by nearly any objective measure, the bevy of activity has winnowed down to just a handful of topics, with one that is particularly notable: the Quarterback Question.
Unless you’re new ‘round these parts (in which case, welcome!) you know that for the fans of WFT, and the folks here at Hogs Haven, all eyes are on what’s “next” for Washington at QB. While Alex Collapse

The Detroit Lions have mutually agreed to part ways with QB Matthew Stafford and they will look to trade him this offseason according to Tom Pelissero. Detroit just hired a new GM and head coach, and Stafford wanted a fresh start after 12 years with the team.
