I think Darryl’s absence is a bit of a misnomer.

It’s not a M-F, 9 to 5 gig.

What for most of us would be a weekend might be one day mid week for players and coaches.

I doubt Sutter is skipping practices or meetings. More likely a day off for the team is his day off too. And while some take an Uber to their downtown apt for a good nights rest he drives back to the farm. Longer commute, same idea.

There’s no need for a fill in, just a dude with a demanding schedule going home when he can.
