This isn't necessarily a bad thing, as long as he doesn't rise any higher than his level of competence in the job. Actually a good thing for a co-owner of a team to have a little Sweat Equity invested in their franchise, it might make it less likely for him to want to move the team during any hard times once his dad is out of the picture.

How does that work? A co-owner get promoted? Did he promote himself? Did his dad promote him?

Co-owner doesn't mean majority owner.

Analytics is the driving force in all decision making.

Co-owner doesn't mean majority owner.

I know that. So did his daddy promote him?

Yes, he reports to the majority owner. I mean, it's right there in the article.

Tony Khan doesn’t owe us anything, but I’d like to see some examples of his analytics. I’d like to know if his stuff is reliable or not.

Most kids got remote control cars to play with. Tony got a football team.

What he has done is get another guy to do analytics, and kicked himself upstairs.  That's the kind of thing that smart owners do.

No, smart owners are open-minded enough to recognize their own limitations and humble enough to admit them.  They leave the football decisions to people who know football.

I think Tony Khan has always left football decisions to people who know football.

We need to lock him up so other NFL teams don't hire him.

Usually, people at this level barely have time to do their full time job. Tony is also the Director of Operations of Fulham FC and has his own Wrestling Organization going on as well. Luckily success is not graded upon wins and losses.

Been wondering if Tony Khan sits in on contract negotiations with players. Could he be the source of friction with some of the former Jaguar players?

Shad should have just given him this .... it worked for me
