The Miami Dolphins fired head coach Brian Flores on Monday, in one of the most shocking moves around the league.

Flores spent three seasons as the Dolphins coach and only had one winning season. However, he failed to get the team to the playoffs. The team hasn’t been to the postseason since the 2016 season, when Adam Gase was the head coach.

Miami was 5-11 in Flores’ first season as head coach. The next year, the Dolphins selected the quarterback of their future in Tua Tagovailoa. However, the quarterback failed to capture the hearts and minds of the Dolphins faithful.

Flores was hired to replace Gase before the start of the 2019 season. He finishes his time in Miami with a 24-25 record.

The Dolphins are back to square one.
