While a shake-up on the coaching staff isn't unexpected, it is somewhat surprising that Philbin is the first victim here. The Miami Herald's Armando Salguero reported that defensive coordinator Kevin Coyle was more likely to be fired than Philbin.
After the Dolphins lost a listless Week 4 game in London to the Jets, Philbin met with Dolphins owner Stephen Ross. Philbin told reporters that the meeting wasn't contentious and that he wasn't worried about his job security.
Adam Schefter reports that Dolphins tight end coach Dan Campbell will be the interim coach for Miami.
