The NFL is full of rising coaching stars, and one prospect who had his ascension halted while in Houston is prepared to take advantage of a big opportunity. Ian Rapoport reports that Eagles offensive coordinator candidate Bobby Slowik has been hired by the Miami Dolphins to the same position

A 13-year NFL veteran coach, Slowik, the former offensive coordinator of the Houston Texans for two seasons, joined the Miami Dolphins as the senior pass game coordinator in 2025.

Prior to joining the Texans, Slowik spent six seasons (2017-22) with the San Francisco 49ers, rising to game coordinator (2022) after serving one season as game specialist (2021) and two seasons as an offensive assistant (2019-20). Slowik’s first role with the 49ers was on the other side of the ball as a defensive quality control coach (2017-18).

With the move complete, it takes another offensive coordinator candidate off the board for the Eagles who previously had hopes of landing Brian Daboll or Mike McDaniel.

In his first year as Houston’s offensive coordinator in 2023, the Texans ranked seventh in the NFL in yards per game (245.5) and second in pass plays over 25 yards (41). Slowik played a key role in C.J. Stroud’s development during his rookie season and helped him have a historic one. Stroud completed 319-of-499 passes for 4,108 yards, 23 touchdowns, five interceptions, and a passer rating of 100.8. He amassed 4,557 yards, including the postseason, which was second-most by a rookie in NFL history. Stroud also led the NFL in pass yards per game (273.9) and was named the PFWA Offensive Rookie of the Year for 2023.
