DAVIE, Fla. -- The Miami Dolphins arguably have had the most off-field turmoil of any NFL team in the past couple months.

Whether it’s Hurricane Irma and starting linebacker Lawrence Timmons going AWOL in September, or former offensive line coach Chris Foerster resigning after a video surfaced of him snorting a white substance, second-year Dolphins coach Adam Gase is gaining valuable experience in crisis management.

In tough times, Gase said he is leaning on lessons he learned from his father, Art, and Alabama coach Nick Saban, who gave Gase his first coaching job as an assistant at LSU in 2000.
