The Miami Dolphins organization has been filled with young talent in recent years that seems to have given them one of the brightest futures of any NFL team. With 39-year-old Mike McDaniel at the head of the ship, there’s hope for a fanbase that hasn’t seen a playoff victory in over 20 years.
However, McDaniel isn’t the only young mind in the coaching staff or front office that deserves hype. The Athletic recently compiled a list of the the 40 best coaches, executives, agents and “other rising stars” that are under the age of 40. McDaniel being on that list is no surprise, considering he’s the newest coach to receive the “boy genius” moniker. Miami’s other representative on the list, Brandon Shore, is a bit of a shock.
Shore, 36, is entering his 12th season with the Dolphins and is currently serving as the team’s senior vice president of football and business administration. With all of the deals that Miami got done this offseason, his appearance on the list makes a bit more sense.
