There\u2019s been plenty of focus about all of the new players on the roster this season for the Miami Dolphins<\/a>. <\/p>\n

But the most challenging job will not be that of any new player \u2014 it will be the job facing new head coach Jeff Hafley as he attempts to tie all of these new skill sets together. It\u2019s a daunting task, but will be a challenge that should reveal plenty about the new man in charge with Miami. The early reviews have been promising. Yet another review is in, this one coming from left tackle Patrick Paul courtesy of his recent appearance on \u2018The Set\u2019 with former Miami Dolphin Terron Armstead<\/a>. <\/p>\n

\u2014 The Set with Terron Armstead (@thesetshow_) July 11, 2026<\/a><\/p>\n

\u201c(Hafley), he is resilient, let me tell you. He is a resilient coach. I like everything that he is about. I like how the defense is looking. It\u2019s a little different going from Mike (McDaniel), who was an offensive head coach, to (Hafley). He\u2019s with both of us. So he\u2019s definitely intense. He\u2019s bringing a new energy, I can definitely appreciate that. I can\u2019t wait to see what he does this year.\u201d <\/p>\n

That last tidbit about Hafley being with both sides of the ball is an interesting one. It\u2019s been a point of emphasis for Hafley all throughout the offseason. Hafley had mentioned several times that spending time with both sides of the ball in the offseason program was important to him as he sunk his teeth into this team \u2014\u00a0something he learned in Green Bay from Matt LaFleur. So to have Paul make note of it? It would seem to bring some real value to how this summer\u2019s offseason program went. The best way for Jeff Hafley to successfully tie all those talents together? Knowing his guys. And it seems his efforts to do so haven\u2019t gone unnoticed. <\/p>\n
