The Miami Dolphins may be settling on a top candidate to become their new head coach.
Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley has emerged as a front-runner for the Miami job, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. While no final decision has been made, Hafley appears to be the Dolphins’ first choice, though he still has interest from elsewhere.
Hafley has been a very popular candidate for coaching vacancies this offseason. He has been with the Packers for two years and has drawn a great deal of praise for the defenses he has constructed.
As a bonus, he has previous head-coaching experience at the college level with Boston College. He went 22-26 during his time with the Eagles.
