You are right about his past. But the calling plays things is speculation. I haven’t seen the Andy Reid or the team claim that. I do believe that Reid can and will overrule his decisions though. There are a lot less qualified people that get head coaching jobs in the nfl every year. Freddie kitchens, Jeff Saturday, and Adam gase just to name a few. Gase for one had the exact situation you described that led to him being a coach except the violent past. He ran an offense that performed well with Peyton manning at the reigns and became a coach for the dolphins. Failed at that then was hired by the jets. I’m sure his race is barely playing a role, but the nfl doesn’t have a great record with hiring coaches of color.
