Miami Dolphins are moving quickly to replace former receivers coach Wes Welker, who left after the 2024 NFL season. The organization, whose star quarterback is Tua Tagovailoa, is already considering a member of the Dallas Cowboys coaching staff as a possible replacement.

For the Dolphins, last season was grueling from the start, as Tagovailoa suffered a lengthy injury. Looking ahead to next season, the Miami organization aims to improve its offense, and its target for replacement is on the Cowboys, who are currently without a head coach following Mike McCarthy’s departure.

As for receivers, it is essential to keep the Dolphins‘ most sought-after target on offense, wide receiver Tyreek Hill. The staff moves that determined Welker’s departure leave the field open for the arrival of a new profile to help Tagovailoa. And Miami is already working on it.
