The Carolina Panthers announced Monday morning that general manager Marty Hurney has been relieved of his duties.
The decision came with Carolina off to a 1-5 start, despite having one of the league s higher payrolls.
“This was an extremely difficult decision,” team owner Jerry Richardson said in a statement released by the team. “Marty made every effort to bring success to the Panthers and took the team to a Super Bowl and two NFC Championship Games. Unfortunately, we have not enjoyed the success we hoped for in recent years. I have the greatest respect and admiration for Marty and will always appreciate the way he tirelessly served the organization.”
Hurney joined the team s personnel department in 1998 and was elevated to general manager in 2002.
