Jeff Ireland is out as the Miami Dolphins’ general manager.

The Dolphins announced on Tuesday evening that they have “mutually parted ways” with Ireland after six years.

Ireland’s departure has been the subject of much speculation for years, as the team has missed the playoff for five straight seasons. But when Black Monday at the end of this season came and went without any major changes in Miami, it was starting to look like Ireland would be safe.

Instead, a day after a major change came to the coaching staff with the firing of offensive coordinator Mike Sherman, an even bigger change has come to the front office. Ireland is done in Miami.
