The Splash Zone 2/12/22: Josh Boyer To Remain Dolphins Defensive Coordinator

We are finally getting some news about Mike McDaniel’s coaching staff as there was a few moves reported yesterday. The major announcement was that Josh Boyer would be retained as the Miami Dolphins defensive coordinator. The defense had a slow start to the 2021 season but turned it on in the second half of the year but it sounds like that was not Boyer’s doing. Reports are that Brian Flores took over defensive play calling and that’s when the defense started to be aggressive again. I guess we’ll find out that answer when the season begins and see how the defense is without Flores around.

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