Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross has confirmed that head coach Joe Philbin will return to the team for the 2015 season.
The Dolphins missed out on the post-season for the second straight year under Philbin due to their 8-7 record, but Ross has admitted that he is pleased with the progress his team are making, despite reports that suggested he was ready to fire the 53-year-old.
Ross is quoted as saying by the club's official website: "I believe in what we're building, Coach Philbin is coming back next year."
The Dolphins recorded their eighth win of the season with a 37-35 victory over the Minnesota Vikings.
