The Miami Dolphins have moved on from head coach Mike McDaniel in a move that has sent shockwaves through the entire NFL world. And as everyone digests the news in its infancy stage, people are immediately addressing the obvious elephant in the room.
Why was Mike McDaniel given clearance to bench Tua Tagovailoa if his job wasn't secure?
Former NFL player Bryant McFadden brought it up on CBS Sports, and it is honestly a great question that we may never get answered. The move away from Tagovailoa late in the season seemed to be the clearest signal from the organization that McDaniel's future was secure.
