Our character coach took a similar job with Texans

Similar, but an EVP seems to be a significant grade jump from a Director. Interesting to know what the biggest catalyst was for this move.

Nice promotion

 

[Brewskies]

I said before, he is a very religious man and the Kraft thing pained him so he quit the Pats.

 

[Froob]

Doesn't really sound like a similar job, sounds like a nice promotion. But, you never really know with these position titles in the NFL lol.

Kraft.

Is that just your speculation or have others in the media echo'd that?

He went from Team Development Director to VP of Team Development.

Sure sounds like a similar job to me.

That's a pretty lazy take. His contract was up and he got what seems like a far better offer from the Texans. The guy has spent his career working with professional athletes. I highly doubt what Kraft allegedly did was the first thing he's ever encountered that might have offended his religious sensibilities.

When he quit he mention religious reasons. I read his quitting statement on the Internet.

From what I read, my opinion.

 

[Sciz]

He was going to the Colts a year ago until McDaniels bailed on them, so Kraft does not seem to be the primary cause here.

One would think if he truly had the strength of those convictions he would not only find forgiveness in his heart but feel a calling to help Robert on the path to redemption

 

[Sicilian]

Yeah, I'm not sold on Kraft being the reason either. It happened far too quickly after that, and people generally (not all the time, but more often than not) don't quit their job and move to Houston as soon as something like that happens. I'm guessing he'd been thinking about it for far longer than that. But I'm also just speculating like anyone else.

 

[IcyPatriot]

Respect measured with money even for a religious guy ... the old 'Get Paid'

Anyways - good for him - Not many stay in a job for long now ... times have changed.

To be a character coach and to bail on your boss once he did something out of character is just an out of character move.

cool story. Oh, I meant I don't give a Sh!T

Slow offseason with few moves to get excited triggers an overanalysis of every corporate personel move.

Next thing we will get worked up because BB's executive assistant decided to move to KC to be closer with her granddaughter.

What? But she's the only one who knows how he likes his morning coffee!!

yeah, me too.
