In March 2010, McCloughan and the 49ers agreed to a mutual termination of his contract, which was later revealed to be due to personal issues with alcoholism and an ongoing divorce.
Shortly after leaving the 49ers, McCloughan was hired by Seattle Seahawks general manager and close friend, John Schneider, to be a senior personnel executive on the team. McCloughan remained in this position until April 2014, when he again resigned due to personal issues.
In January 2015, McCloughan was hired as general manager of the Washington Redskins.
Despite helping build to the team to two straight winning seasons since his hiring, McCloughan was fired by the team in March 2017, again allegedly due to his issues with alcoholism.
Hmmm, lets see, former 49ers AND Seahawks employee, (no Ram hatred there) who gets @#$%&-canned for being a degenerate Alcoholic EVERY time.
