How is the Miami Dolphins franchise preparing for the season ahead?
While the franchise didn’t have a lot to do during the 2022 NFL Draft, the acquisition of Tyreek Hill has brought back some attention to the franchise. The trade with the Kansas City Chiefs for the ‘Cheetah’ cost the Dolphins 5 draft picks, but they are in a good position going into next season. While they started poorly last season, the Dolphins showed fight in the second half but marginally fell short of making the playoffs.

The team managed to win 8 of its final 9 games aided by a seven-game winning streak to close out the season strongly. Despite their strong finish, the Dolphins chose to part ways with head coach Brian Flores by releasing him.
Under new head coach Mike McDaniel, the pressure will be on to deliver success immediately and justify their gambles in recent months.
The Dolphins fans will be counting on the franchise to make the playoffs finally. It will also mark the end of their appearance drought in recent seasons. It will be a challenging campaign for QB Tua Tagovaiola and Tyreek Hill ahead of the upcoming season in 2022.
