The question for Grier, like when the Dolphins parted ways with Jeff Ireland, Dennis Hickey, Mike Tannenbaum, and all the other ghosts of Miami past, is what\u2019s next.<\/p>\n
That answer might surprise you.<\/p>\n
According to NFL Insider Josina Anderson, the Browns have been considering bringing in a new front-office hire, and former Dolphins GM Chris Grier is among the candidates. The other is former Las Vegas Raiders GM Tom Telesco.<\/p>\n
Now I don\u2019t know about you. But when I think of the Cleveland Browns and how they should approach the franchise\u2019s future\u2026 the first name I\u2019m definitely crossing off the list is Grier, the guy who Dolphins fans quite literally just ran out of town, after years of calling for his head, and banners flying over Hard Rock Stadium.<\/p>\n
That\u2019s not to say he can\u2019t add a valuable voice to the already established front office because we\u2019ve seen general managers who get fired having success in complementary roles before \u2014 I mean, Reggie McKenzie, Marvin Allen, and interim GM Champ Kelly, all fit that bill. So there is a chance he can find success in a lesser role or as an advisor, but if I\u2019m a team in need of a general manager, Grier is not the guy I\u2019m hiring.<\/p>\n
With Grier finally out of Miami, Kelly stepped into the interim GM role and has been seen around the team frequently over the last few months. In fact, I feel as though I\u2019ve seen more of Kelly over the latter half of the 2025 season than I ever did Grier, but I could be terribly mistaken. Nevertheless, Ross will have an important decision to make on Miami\u2019s front office and, even more so, on the future of head coach Mike McDaniel.<\/p>\n
