After his wife filed a second divorce lawsuit this February, former San Francisco 49ers general manager Scot McCloughan realized how much he sacrificed to his job. Thus he made a decision that may affect his career but improve his relationship with family: leaving the 49ers and joining the Seattle Seahawks to work as a senior football executive.
“I understand now that the job can’t consume your life,’’ McCloughan told the Boston Globe. “I’m still young, and I still love football. But it was consuming my life, and it’s just not as important as your health or taking care of your family.’’
McCloughan also said that he was frustrated when received the summons from court. Thinking that he might lose his family, his three kids, he had to reevaluate job and family. He wanted to be a good father and husband before it’s too late so he chose to apply for job that would give him some leeway. He got it from the Seahawks, who hired him as a senior football executive, who can stay based out of Northern California and will operate as a national scout. McCloughan was glad that he finally has time to watch his own sons playing football in Bradshaw jerseys and cheer with them for their favorite NFL teams.
