Breaking News: The Miami Dolphins are making a significant change, and it's shaking up the team! It appears that Mike McDaniel's time as the Dolphins' head coach has come to an end, according to reports. This decision, announced on Thursday, marks a pivotal moment for the franchise.
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has made the call to move on from McDaniel.
McDaniel, who is 42 years old, leaves the Dolphins with a record of 35-33. He took the helm in 2022, starting with a 9-8 record and a playoff appearance in his debut season. The team showed improvement in 2023, finishing at 11-6, but unfortunately, they faced another first-round playoff exit.
The team's performance dipped in the following seasons, with records of 8-9 in 2024 and 7-10 in 2025. This period also saw the departure of former General Manager Chris Grier midway through the season.
Now, the Dolphins are presented with a fresh start, as they will be looking for a new General Manager and a new head coach.
And this is the part most people miss... One of the first major decisions for the new leadership will be the quarterback situation with Tua Tagovailoa.
