Dolphins Coaches Praise Malik Willis at Minicamp, Stress Consistency

Overview

• Miami’s offensive coordinator Bobby Slowik and quarterbacks coach Bush Hamdan offered detailed praise Tuesday at the Miami Gardens minicamp, putting their public support for Malik Willis on the record.
• Slowik said Willis can spin the ball to every part of the field and use his legs to attack space, adding that his upbeat personality lifts the room.
• Hamdan called Willis a leader who is first in and last out of the facility, noting he has rallied teammates across the roster.
• Both coaches framed consistency as the next hurdle, with Slowik adding that Willis’ running threat forces 11‑on‑11 defense in a way Miami did not have with Tua Tagovailoa.
• The Dolphins committed to Willis in March on a three-year, $67.5 million deal, signaling he is the planned starter as the team shapes its offense around his arm strength and mobility.
