Overview
- Multiple outlets reported the decision Monday after Hafley's second in-person interview, with the Associated Press citing an agreement pending final contract details.
- Hafley, 46, led Green Bay's defense the past two seasons after a 22-26 stint as Boston College's head coach, guiding units that finished top 12 in yards and points in 2024 and 2025.
- The move follows Miami's Jan. 8 dismissal of Mike McDaniel and the subsequent hiring of former Packers executive Jon-Eric Sullivan as general manager.
- Hafley had been lining up additional second interviews, including with the Titans and Raiders, which are not expected to proceed as Green Bay begins a search for a new defensive coordinator.
- Attention now turns to building Miami's staff and evaluating major roster and cap decisions, including the futures of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa and wide receiver Tyreek Hill.
