The Miami Dolphins are still searching for a head coach. They had interest in former Baltimore Ravens head coach John Harbaugh, but he agreed to a deal with the New York Giants last week. They also had interest in former Cleveland Browns head coach Kevin Stefanski, but he signed on to coach the Atlanta Falcons over the weekend.
After the first couple of dominoes fell, Miami’s focus narrowed — and they seem to have zeroed in on Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley, if you believe the reports by various media members over the past few days.

The Miami Dolphins have a new general manager—Jon-Eric Sullivan.
Sullivan spent the last 21 seasons with the Green Bay Packers, working his way up from football operations assistant, to vice president of player personnel. As he takes control of the Dolphins, his work is definitely cut out for him. The Dolphins are in a tricky spot, with limited draft capital, and most of their money sewn up in contracts of players that likely won’t be here for the long haul.
On Sunday, Sullivan sat down with Travis Wingfield for his very first interview as general manager, to discuss the challenges...

The Miami Dolphins are going through rebuild at the top of their organizational chart. Last week, they hired Jon-Eric Sullivan to be their new general manager and fired Mike McDaniel. For the past week, names have been dropped on who the Dolphins are requesting interviews with.
