Dolphins to reportedly make Vic Fangio the NFL’s highest-paid defensive coordinator

The search for a defensive coordinator ends by backing up the brink’s truck.

Sports Illustrated's Albert Breer reported on Friday morning that the Dolphins are paying former Denver Broncos head coach Vic Fangio more than $4.5 million per year on a three-year contract.

Sources: The Dolphins are doing a three-year deal with Vic Fangio that'll pay their new defensive coordinator more than $4.5 million per. Was always going to be competitive luring Fangio, and Miami was willing to compete.
