The Miami Dolphins head coach search has spanned several weeks and endured twists and turns of all kinds, but it appears the team could announce its hire within the next few days.
Per NFL Network, Miami has scheduled a second interview with San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel on Monday. Miami can interview McDaniel regardless of the results of Sunday’s NFC Championship game between the 49ers and the Los Angeles Rams.
McDaniel has garnered strong support on social media thanks in part to his upbeat and sometimes comedic presence in formal press conferences, but also because he’s been an integral part of building a potent and creative 49ers offense that has turned the likes of wide receiver Deebo Samuel and running back Elijah Mitchell into young stars.
