MIAMI -- As the NFL descended on PSD Bank Arena in Frankfurt, Germany, earlier this month, the Miami Dolphins' communication staff had to adapt, because the home of fourth-tier German soccer club FSV Frankfurt had no dedicated media room.

Instead, a large VIP room was fitted with several long tables in front of a makeshift lectern, with a canvas Dolphins backdrop behind it. It's where the team conducted its news conferences.

Before the first practice of the week on Wednesday, Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel made his way to the front of the room dressed as if he never left Miami -- in a black hoodie and matching sweatpants, with his sleeves rolled up to his elbows and his pants above his calves.
