Jeremy Fowler of ESPN is reporting that the Dolphins are working on hiring Darrell Bevell as their quarterback’s coach and passing game coordinator.
Dolphins are working toward adding Darrell Bevell as pass-game coordinator/quarterbacks coach, per sources. Long-time OC and interim coach at two stops gives new coach Mike McDaniel plenty of experience.

Bevell has a long history as an offensive coordinator. He was the Vikings offensive coordinator from 2006-to-2010. The Seahawks offensive coordinator from 2011-to-2017. He then was the Lions offensive coordinator from 2019-to-2020 and in late November 2020, he became the interim head coach of the Lions after they fired Matt Patricia. In 2021 he was the Jacksonville offensive coordinator and after a 2-11 start when Jacksonville fired Urban Meyer, Bevell became the interim head coach again.

Looks like McM is putting together a darn good coaching staff. Did so in about only a week ! Impressive. Now we need Grier to do the same with the Oline. Since the Phins don’t know how to draft O linemen, why not buy them ? Use free agency and cap space to cure the offensive line ills. Sign up two tackles and a center . Move either Dieter or Eichenberg to the RG spot. Let the best man win that duel, and Robert Hunt stays at the LG spot. In the draft, get a MLB to work in the middle of the defense in between AVG and Baker. Get the bell cow RB that was missed so bad the last few years (Kenneth Walker, Spiller or Hall) and finally pick up two WR’s this offseason to go with Waddle. Call up Atlanta and see what it takes to get Ridley, get one in the draft as well. New RB room : Rookie (K.Walker / Hall / Spiller), Duke, Lindsey, Gaskin, Doakes. New WR room : Waddle, Ridley, Rookie, (J. Williams, Burks, Olave) Bowden, Hollins. Resign Gesicki , Smythe and offense is set. Defense is already set, just keep Ogbah, add new MLB in draft, some depth at DT and secondary. Coaching will make the difference of at least two games and Phins could go 11-6 in 2022. Tua shuts critics up. BTW, get back up QB Mariotta as well. Good vibe for Tua and can only be better than Brissett if needed.
