The Dolphins hired Nathaniel Hackett as their quarterbacks coach, but they had interest in interviewing Bruce Gradkowski for the job before adding Hackett to Jeff Hafley’s staff.
Miami requested to interview Lions offensive assistant Bruce Gradkowski for the job. The Lions denied the request, according to Jordan Schultz of The Schultz Report.
Because he is under contract to the Lions and the position is considered a lateral move, the team was allowed to decline the Dolphins’ request.
Gradkowski played 37 games, with 20 starts, as an NFL quarterback, with the Bucs, Browns, Raiders, Bengals and Steelers. He last played in the NFL in 2014.
