MIAMI -- The Dolphins' offensive staff under head coach Mike McDaniel continues to come together, as the team will hire Frank Smith as its new offensive coordinator, a league source confirmed Monday.

Smith will work in conjunction with McDaniel, who will call plays, and wide receivers coach Wes Welker, who will help develop Miami's passing game plan. He is the fourth new hire on McDaniel's offensive staff, joining Welker, tight ends coach Jon Embree and offensive line coach Matt Applebaum.

NFL Network was the first to report the news of Smith's hiring.

Smith joins McDaniel's staff after a season as the Los Angeles Chargers' run game coordinator and offensive line coach.
