Mike McDaniel has been relieved of his duties as head coach of the Miami Dolphins. It's not an entirely unexpected move for the organization to make but letting a few days pass between the end of the season and the announcement added an element of surprise.
McDaniel went 35-33 in his four years with the Dolphins, leading the team to two very brief playoff appearances. Not long ago he was being celebrated as one of the most innovative offensive minds in the games. And now he's out of a job, though he should have no shortage of opportunities available—at least as a coordinator.
