Redskins promote Kyle Smith to vice president of player personnel

The Redskins made another big front office move.

The Washington Redskins continue the massive shakeup to the front office.

Monday, the team announced Kyle Smith will move up the ladder to vice president of player personnel.

Owner Dan Snyder issued a statement: “Kyle Smith has put in the work over the last 10 seasons and has proven to be a skilled talent evaluator.”

Smith originally joined the team in 2011 as an area scout after an internship — now he’ll help oversee college and pro personnel changes for the team.

Smith’s move is the latest in a long line of shuffling since the Redskins fired Bruce Allen and handed over control to new head coach Ron Rivera. Moving Doug Williams out of this slot and to player development was one of the other notable moves in the shakeup.
