At this point in the NFL offseason, most teams are putting their finishing touches on their coaching staff for the next season, as some were let go or moved on to new opportunities.
On Tuesday, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the Las Vegas Raiders are hiring former Miami Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin as a senior offensive assistant.
Philbin, 62, was the Dolphins head coach from 2012-15, leading the aqua and orange to a 26-30 record before being fired midseason and being replaced by current Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell.
Since leaving Miami, Philbin has spent time with the Indianapolis Colts (2016-17), Green Bay Packers (2018), Dallas Cowboys (2020-22) and Ohio State (2023).
The Dolphins are scheduled to play the Raiders in 2024 at Hard Rock Stadium, so Philbin may be seen on the sideline or in their coaching box for the matchup.
