The New York Times • • sports
Key Points:
- The Miami Dolphins are close to hiring Jeff Hafley as their next head coach, making him the 12th full-time coach in franchise history.
- Hafley comes from the Green Bay Packers, where he was defensive coordinator for two seasons, leading a top-ranked defense, and previously was head coach at Boston College for four years.
- The Dolphins are undergoing major changes, having recently fired GM Chris Grier and coach Mike McDaniel, and hired new GM Jon-Eric Sullivan, who worked with Hafley in Green Bay.
- Hafley would be only the second Dolphins head coach since 2007 with a defensive background and faces the challenge of improving the team’s playoff prospects amid a competitive AFC East.
- Key decisions ahead
