A Sports Illustrated report described Jack Easterby’s ascension to the top of the Texans’ front office as “unlike anything the NFL has ever seen.”
The story said people inside the organization believe he’s contributed to an “atmosphere of mistrust” and a “state of constant chaos.”
Jenny Vrentas and Greg Bishop wrote that many feel as though Easterby – who was previously the Patriots’ chaplain and is now the Texans’ executive vice president of football operations – isn’t fit for his current perch.
The article said some liken him to Petyr Baelish, also known as Littlefinger, from the series Game of Thrones in the way he cunningly pulls strings behind the scenes to achieve the outcome he desires.
