New England Patriots defensive coordinator Brian Flores agreed to terms with the Miami Dolphins to become their new head coach.
The Dolphins announced the news Monday following the Patriots 13-3 win over the Los Angeles Rams in Super Bowl LIII. General manager Chris Grier provided his thoughts on the hire in a statement:
"Two things that stand out immediately when you meet Brian are his football intelligence and leadership skills. Brian is widely respected throughout the NFL. He paid his dues in New England working in personnel, on offense, defense and special teams, which helped him build a great understanding of what it takes to win.
