Jim Caldwell Joins Dolphins Coaching Staff as Assistant HC, QBs Coach

Former Indianapolis Colts and Detroit Lions head coach Jim Caldwell will take over as an assistant head coach and the quarterbacks coach for the Miami Dolphins, the team announced Friday.

The 64-year-old has a 62-50 record with the Colts and Lions. He led Indianapolis to a 14-2 record and Super Bowl XLIV appearance in 2009 but lost to the New Orleans Saints.

Indianapolis went 10-6 and fell in the wild-card round the following year. In 2011, quarterback Peyton Manning underwent neck surgery and was forced to miss the entire season.
