Dolphins officially hire Anthony Weaver as their new defensive coordinator

The Miami Dolphins are hiring Baltimore Ravens assistant coach Anthony Weaver to be their new defensive coordinator

The Miami Dolphins have found their replacement for former defensive coordinator Vic Fangio, officially hiring Anthony Weaver away from the Baltimore Ravens.

After Mike Macdonald exited for Seattle, Weaver departed Baltimore, where he was the Ravens’ assistant head coach and defensive line coach.

Miami sought change and mutually agreed to part ways with Vic Fangio, and after interviewing several other candidates, he’ll land on Mike McDaniel’s staff.

The 43-year-old Weaver played seven seasons in the NFL as a defensive end for the Ravens (2002-2005) and Houston Texans (2006-2008) after being a second-round pick out of Notre Dame.

Weaver broke into the NFL coaching ranks as an assistant linebacker coach for the New York Jets in 2012.

Since then, he’s been on staff for the Buffalo Bills, Cleveland Browns, and Texans before landing with the Ravens in 2021.

Eagles expected to pursue Vic Fangio for defensive coordinator position

The Eagles will puruse Vic Fangio for their vacant defensive coordinator job after he parts ways with the Miami Dolphins

The Dolphins are shaking things up on the defensive side of the football, and that could help the Eagles right a wrong after the Jonathan Gannon fiasco.

Vic Fangio is out as defensive coordinator in Miami, as the veteran coach and Miami’s Mike McDaniel have decided to part ways. Fangio wants to be closer to his family in Pennslyvania, and Philadelphia happens to have a vacancy after firing Sean Desai.

After interviewing Mike Caldwell and Ron Rivera, Adam Schefter is reporting that Fangio will be the Eagles coordinator target going forward.

Fangio, who had been one of the most sought-after defensive coordinator candidates last offseason, was Denverā€™s head coach from 2019-21, going 19-30.

Fangio spent the Super Bowl run with the Eagles but took the Dolphins coordinator job, expecting Jonathan Gannon to remain in Philadelphia.

Gannon bolted to Arizona to coach the Cardinals, and after missing out on Fangio, the Eagles landed on Sean Desai.
