The Washington Football Team is expected to make Marty Hurney its new general manager, sources confirmed to ESPN.
The move, which was first reported by NFL Network, provides another familiar face for coach Ron Rivera.
Hurney spent parts of five seasons with Rivera in Carolina, having been fired twice. He hired Rivera in 2011 and spent one more year there before being ousted.
He returned in 2017 as an interim general manager and remained in that job until he was fired in December, in part because his "old-school" methods clashed with owner David Tepper's desire to find someone more aligned with an analytics and data driven approach.
