Marino Resigns New Dolphins Post
Tuesday February 3, 2004
After just three weeks on the job, new Miami Dolphins senior vice president of football operations Dan Marino has decided he's not cut out for the job at this time and is resigning his duties. Rumors surfaced over the weekend that he was having second thoughts about taking the job, but he denied that was the case before taking the air for CBS' Super Bowl XXXVIII coverage. Tuesday, he made it official with a statement released on the Miami Dolphins website.
In the statement Marino said, "When it became clear that Wayne was looking to bring in a high-level football executive, I approached him about the position. I knew it would involve a significant lifestyle change but after further reflection, it became clear that those adjustments were ones that my family and I are not prepared to make at this time. As a result, I have decided that it would not be in the best interests of either my family or the Dolphins to assume the role as the team’s Senior Vice President of Football Operations."
