Thomas Dimitroff, former general manager of the Atlanta Falcons, is not taking his talents to another front office in the NFL. Not right away, at least.
Instead Dimitroff, who was fired in 2020, is heading to the small screen where he’s going to give football fans something they haven’t seen much of before.
The life of an NFL general manager, as we know it, involves drafting players, making trades and negotiating contracts. But what else? We’re about to get some insight on some of that and more thanks to Dimitroff and 15 GMs in the NFL.
According to this week’s Football Morning in America column via NBC Sports , Dimitroff is producing a TV show which will help fans better understand what exactly general managers do:
3. I think Thomas Dimitroff is on to something big. The former Falcons general manager has now interviewed 15 GMs for an unfiltered TV show that he’s producing. The idea is to show aspects of the job—and the personalities behind it—that often go unseen/unexplained.
The column goes on to name four front office executives who are part of the operation already. Those four are:
- Howie Roseman (Eagles)
- Jason Licht (Buccaneers)
- Mickey Loomis (Saints)
- Brett Veach (Chiefs)
Additionally, two other GMs likely to be interviewed in the show include the Bills’ Brandon Beane and the Ravens’ Eric DeCosta. Those two we know thanks to local restaurants in both of their respective markets.
Bar Bill Taven outside of Buffalo shared an image of Dimitroff interviewing Beane back in June. In another post relating to Dimitroff’s undertaking, Jimmy’s Famous Seafood in Baltimore also hinted that DeCosta will be among the 15.
Aside from the names of those who will be featured on the show, few other details have yet to be released. Included in unknown info is when and where the show is set the air.
Stay tuned for that update.
