Anyone know what happened to Chris Kroeger?!

Interesting.  I'm curious to see who replaces him.

Was genuinely surprised to see the resignation considering how he's moved up within the org during both regimes.

High level officials resigning from Tepper's organizations has been kind of a theme.

Honestly, if I had to guess I'd say nobody.

Despite his title, he wasn't really a football guy.

Play-by-play for the Hornets iirc but I think he was released recently?

And that, more than anything might be the tell of the tale. Was he just a business guy? And if so, Tepper probably has others he'd rather see there at this time. There's a lot that has gone on in those offices since they hired then fired Rhule than we will ever know. Being a holdover from the Richardson regime says a lot for him in that he stayed in the organization this long. 

Still, ends happen for everything. Best of days ahead for him.

He was fired a few years ago. Not really recent. Always rumored b/c of some kind of workplace misconduct, but he hasn’t popped up anywhere since. Completely dark on Twitter where he used to be VERY active

He was primarily a communications guy. Spent the years before as head of that department.

Richardson had a habit of putting people in positions that didn't necessarily fit their skill set. He was one of those people who think if you're good at one thing, you'll automatically be good at something else (even if there's zero correlation between those things) you.

The pandemic has made it so that it feels like everything in the last 5 years has taken place within the last 2.

And yet somehow, also feel like it's taken 10 years at the same time.

Because there is a lack of representation in NFL leadership despite a majority of the league being black and the Panthers were just recently in the spotlight with this issue during the Wilks' saga.

I get it, just seems like an irrelevant way to describe someone if you truly view all people as people. 
 

If we keep reminding people of their differences, they will believe it.

Isn't he dead? He looks dead.
