ATLANTA — A day after helping lead the New England Patriots to their sixth Super Bowl title, Brian Flores was named head coach of the Miami Dolphins on Monday.
Flores worked with the Patriots for 15 seasons, most recently as the linebackers coach — though he was also responsible for defensive play-calling. He leaves New England on a high note after the Patriots’ defense held the Los Angeles Rams to just 3 points in the Super Bowl on Sunday.
As the 13th coach of the Dolphins, Flores will have a lot of work to do.
