Miami Dolphins fire head coach Brian Flores


It wasn’t very long ago that Brian Flores was getting some mention as a potential long-shot NFL Coach of the Year candidate, but now he’s done.

The Dolphins fired Flores on Monday morning, one day after the team finished a 9-8 season with a 33-24 victory against the New England Patriots at Hard Rock Stadium.

The organization put out a statement through its social media channels announcing the news, which earlier had been reported by ESPN’s Adam Schefter.

“I made a decision today to part ways with Brian Flores,” owner Stephen Ross said in the statement. “After evaluating where we are as an organization and what we need going forward to improve, I determined that key dynamics of our football organization weren’t functioning at a level I want it to be and felt that this decision was in the best interest of the Miami Dolphins.
