While the Miami Dolphins are in the midst of seeing which players and personnel will be back next season, they are getting some clarity on a key staff position.

In the midst of a disappointing end of the season, the Dolphins still managed to make the playoffs for the first time in almost a decade.

A big reason being head coach Mike McDaniel and his staff's elevation of QB Tua Tagovailoa and the offense.

Offensive Coordinator Frank Smith is going to keep a major portion of his staff. Passing game coordinator and quarterback's coach Darrell Bevell is warding off offers to interview for offensive coordinator positions.

Opting to stay with the Dolphins for another year.

#Dolphins pass game coordinator/QB coach Darrell Bevell informed the #Jets and #Commanders he’s declining an interview for their OC jobs, per sources.

Bevell is well-respected and figures to have other opportunities in this cycle. But as of now, he plans to stay in Miami.

A big return for the Dolphins offense, which finished fourth in the league overall. The franchise's first top 10 offensive output since 1995, scoring 23.4 points per game.

Seeing first-hand the elevation of QB Tua Tagovailoa with his best season as a pro so far, the unstoppable WR duo of Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle and a postseason birth.

A return of Bevell gives the Miami Dolphins a consistent face on offense. The best one they've fielded since the days of Dan Marino.

What happens with players in free agency will come to fruition in March. Whether or not some key players return.

Good news is the Dolphins will have one of their most important components of the offense.
