Ron Rivera bulked up his front office Friday, hiring Martin Mayhew to be Washington’s general manager and Marty Hurney to serve as executive vice-president of football and player personnel. Mayhew joins Washington after four seasons with the San Francisco 49ers. Hurney was widely reported to be the pick as GM this week before Mayhew became the choice. “Marty Hurney is an excellent evaluator of talent and someone whom I trust and have worked with in the past,” Rivera said. Marty has a proven track record as a successful scout and general manager and will be a vital part of shaping our roster.“___Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading... Loading...
