Overview
- Multiple outlets report Miami has finalized a contract with Green Bay vice president of player personnel Jon-Eric Sullivan to become GM, succeeding Chris Grier.
- Owner Stephen Ross prioritized filling the front-office post first, with Troy Aikman consulting on the search and reportedly advocating for Sullivan.
- Sullivan assumes control of the head coach search after Mike McDaniel’s firing, with reporting linking Green Bay-connected options such as Jeff Hafley, Mike McCarthy, Adam Stenavich and Anthony Campanile as possibilities.
- By passing on finalist Chad Alexander, a longtime John Harbaugh associate, Miami lessens a direct path to Harbaugh, though reporting indicates the team remains interested rather than committed.
- A key early decision centers on Tua Tagovailoa’s future, with a $56.4 million 2026 cap hit and an estimated $99.2 million dead-cap charge if released before June 1.
