The Splash Zone 1/5/19: Dolphins Set To Interview Dennis Allen

The Dolphins have requested an interview with Dennis Allen and that will take place today. Allen has been the Saints defensive coordinator for the past three seasons and has steadily improved the unit each year. He was also the head coach of the Raiders from 2012-14 and held a record of 8-28. Allen was dealt a bad hand in Oakland as his quarterbacks were Terrelle Pryor and Matt McGloin, a recipe for disaster. The Dolphins are leaving no stone left unturned.

You can check out that story here, and the rest of the day’s round-up below.
