We don’t really know that though. Everyone assumes that. But we don’t know it to be true.
And they are not going to take the decision maker title away from Wolf. There are a number of reasons for that. One big one is that they would have to open the interview process to a number of different people to satisfy the Rooney rule. They can’t just give the title to Cowden. They would have to interview minority candidates.
Also, they are not going to strip Wolf of the title without cause. They won’t do that to Wolf.
And lastly, Vrabel seems fine with way things are. He seems to be happy with his relationship with Wolf. He doesn’t seem to want to replace him.
