Miami Dolphins Expected To Introduce Brian Flores As New Head Coach

DAVIE (CBSMiami/AP) – Now that the Super Bowl is over, and New England has notched another, the Miami Dolphins can announce their new head coach.

They’ve called a news conference for Monday afternoon where they are expected to introduce Patriots defensive call player Brian Flores as their replacement for Adam Gase.

Flores and Miami general manager Chris Grier both started their NFL careers as Patriots scouts.

Flores, 37, has been with the Patriots for 11 seasons. Officially, he was the team’s linebackers coach, but he took over defensive play-calling duties when Matt Patricia left to take the Lions head coaching job a year ago.
