Update on NFL Legend Troy Aikman's Future with Dolphins After Consulting With HC, GM Searches

After serving as a consultant for the Miami Dolphins during their searches for a new head coach and general manager, NFL legend Troy Aikman is still helping the franchise.

During an appearance on the Rodeo Time podcast (h/t Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk), Aikman revealed that he'll continue working with the Dolphins "in some capacity."

Miami hired former Green Bay Packers defensive coordinator Jeff Hafley as head coach and former Packers vice president Jon-Eric Sullivan as GM. The team also landed a deal with prized free-agent quarterback Malik Willis after releasing longtime starter Tua Tagovailoa.

Aikman's role as an analyst for Monday Night Football on ESPN could create some complications, but he should be able to work around them the same way Tom Brady works through his limitations in his roles as lead analyst for Fox and Las Vegas Raiders minority owner.

It's clear that the Dolphins are entering a new era, and Aikman is happy to be a part of it.
