The Carolina Panthers are reportedly close to re-hiring former general manager Marty Hurney for the position he was officially fired from in 2012.
The NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero reported Hurney is meeting with Panthers owner Jerry Richardson on Tuesday and is expected to be named the interim GM if things go well.
Hurney was the Panthers’ GM for nine years before being relieved of his duties after the Panthers got off to a 1-5 start in 2012.
Hurney said at the time he was fired and did not resign, although team and league sources have said it was more of a mutual parting of ways.
