MIAMI -- The Miami Dolphins' latest coaching hire might have a familiar feel to fans.
They have seen their franchise hire eight coaches since the turn of the century, and only one had prior NFL head coaching experience. And of those seven first-time head coaches, five had backgrounds on offense.
That list now includes San Francisco 49ers offensive coordinator Mike McDaniel, who agreed to terms Sunday to become the Dolphins' head coach. McDaniel, who identifies as multiracial, joins the Pittsburgh Steelers' Mike Tomlin, Washington Commanders' Ron Rivera and New York Jets' Robert Saleh among the league's minority head coaches.
