McDaniel previously worked with Slowik with the San Francisco 49ers before taking the helm in Miami, and in Washington more than a decade ago. Slowik’s brother, Ryan, was already on the Dolphins’ staff as defensive backs coach and defensive pass game specialist.

Unlike many of this year's top NFL Draft prospects, Texas wide receiver Isaiah Bond plans to run the 40-yard dash. He also made a bold proclamation Friday at the scouting combine by vowing to set a record in the sprint.

Along with Restrepo’s limited participation in drills, Miami quarterback Cam Ward is opting not to throw at the combine and Hurricanes tight end Elijah Arroyo is letting a knee bruise heal before working out at the team’s pro day.

Miami Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel says wide receiver Tyreek Hill recently had surgery to repair ligament damage in his wrist but is expected to be available for training camp.
