Again, if you're more convinced by your narrative, that's cool, but I'm just telling you the official one on the books.

I’m not saying it’s speculation that Dorsey was an asshole and it got him fired. I’m saying it’s speculation that it was the only factor and that they didn’t view Veach as their guy before they actually made the move. It’s easier to let somebody go in June when you already have your guy.

I think the real point that I’m trying to make here is that Reid knew what he had in Veach, he probably didn’t want to lose him, and all the combined with Dorsey being a jackass made it really easy to fire him after we just drafted Mahomes. They weren’t going to fire Dorsey and bring somebody in that had nothing to do with the biggest move the franchise has ever made right after they made it.
