Mandatory Credit: Kim Klement Neitzel-USA TODAY Sports Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel has signed a multiyear contract extension through the 2028 season, multiple outlets reported Friday.
Financial terms were not revealed.
McDaniel, 41, assumed the job before the 2022 season, signing a four-year contract as he took over for the fired Brian Flores. It was the first head-coaching job for McDaniel, who was the offensive coordinator of the San Francisco 49ers when the Dolphins lured him away.
In two seasons under McDaniel, the Dolphins have posted 9-8 and 11-6 records, earning playoff berths both seasons. They lost to the Buffalo Bills in the wild-card round after the 2022 season and to the Kansas City Chiefs last season as a wild card.
Last season, the Dolphins ranked No. 1 in total offense and passing offense and No. 2 in scoring offense.
The Dolphins, who recently signed quarterback Tua Tagovailoa to an extension, are expected to vie with the Buffalo Bills and New York Jets for the AFC East title. Miami opens the season at home against the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sept. 8.
