Las Vegas Raiders interim president Dan Ventrelle is out.
This is kind of interesting because of the circumstances. The Raiders put out a tweet:

And that’s all. No press conference, nothing else. Kinda makes you wonder…
Edited to add 5/7: Former interim president Ventrelle is saying that his firing was retaliatory.
…alleging he was fired in retaliation for bringing concerns by multiple employees about hostile workplace conditions within the organization to the NFL.
“I take that responsibility very seriously, which is why multiple written complaints from employees that Mark [Davis] created a hostile work environment and engaged in other potential misconduct caused me grave concern,” Ventrelle said in a statement to the Las Vegas Review-Journal. “When Mark was confronted about these issues he was dismissive and did not demonstrate the warranted level of concern.
“Soon thereafter, I was fired in retaliation for raising these concerns. I firmly stand by my decision to elevate these issues to protect the organization and its female employees.”
He also said he’s hired lawyers and “would not provide further comment at this time”.
It being Vegas, I’m just going to jump to the irrational conclusion that they want to replace them with mob guys.
