Miami Dolphins found their new lead man, announcing Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley as their next head coach on Monday evening. Hafley was a popular name this cycle and ultimately landed in Miami.

Hafley, who turns 47 in April, just wrapped up his second season as the Packers' defensive coordinator. His unit ranked No. 12 in total defense, allowing 311.8 yards per game, and No. 11 in scoring defense, allowing 21.2 points per game. The Packers were eliminated in the wild card round last week after blowing the largest lead (18 points) in postseason franchise history to rival Chicago Bears.

Hafley is well-traveled and experienced. He last served as the head coach at Boston College for four seasons, going 22-26 before leaving for the Packers. Before his time at Boston College, he spent a season as Ohio State's co-defensive coordinator and defensive backs coach. The Buckeyes allowed 13.7 points per game and 259.7 yards per game that season, which ranked the fewest in the FBS. Hafley also coached defensive backs with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Cleveland Browns and San Francisco 49ers, as well as at the college level at Pittsburgh and Rutgers.

2026 tOSU Defense Discussion

It is but I think he can do it. That UCLA touchdown was with our backup defense though right?

Anyway, I’ll concede that maybe that’s asking a lot but can he do it? Yes I think he can.
There was some game where he looked physically outmatched. Which was a little concernng to me. Cause he wasn't getting beat with technique just people running by him,
