Miami Dolphins hire former Packers DC Jeff Hafley as new head coach - Yahoo Sports

The Miami Dolphins have hired former Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley as their new head coach, signing him to a five-year contract. This move comes after the firing of Mike McDaniel, who was let go despite a late-season surge that saw the team finish 7-10. Hafley's hiring reunites him with Jon-Eric Sullivan, the former Packers' vice president of player personnel who was hired as the Dolphins' general manager earlier this month. The new coaching staff's first task could be deciding the future of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, who struggled last season with 15 interceptions, the second-most in the NFL. Despite these challenges, the team has promising players like running back De'Von Achane and wide receiver Jaylen Waddle to build around.
