Mike McDaniel shown the door by the Dolphins

Mike McDaniel's tenure with the Miami Dolphins came to an end Thursday after four seasons. A 7-10 finish to 2025 led owner Stephen Ross to decide that "comprehensive change" needed to happen, which included the firing of the team's head coach.

On Thursday, McDaniel released a statement through the Dolphins.

"Coaching this team and being part of this great franchise has been the honor of a lifetime," McDaniel said. "When I took this job, I had a vision of a team that was bonded together and played with passion and energy on the path to winning championships. I gave everything I had for that goal. I am disappointed, especially for the fans, that we did not have better results on the field, but I am grateful for every coach, player, and staff member who poured themselves into that vision alongside me.

Between the serious possibly career ending injury to Tyreek Hill and protecting fragile Tua any coach is going to have limited success. Not saying he's perfect, but this season wasn't going to be Super Bowl worthy regardless.
