Mike Dee is leaving the NFL's Dolphins to become the president and CEO of the Padres.
Tom Garfinkel, who assumed the duties of CEO after predecessor Jeff Moorad stepped aside early last year, stepped down from his position with the Padres last week.
The Dolphins said Dee would remain with them for the next several weeks while he prepares for the transition.
Dee was previously with San Diego from 1995 to 2002.
