Dolphins' Holland: DC Weaver a 'complete 180' from Fangio

Miami Dolphins safety Jevon Holland said new defensive coordinator Anthony Weaver is a "complete 180" from former defensive boss Vic Fangio, according to NFL Network's Cameron Wolfe.

"It's the fact that he's a good person that makes a difference," Holland added, per Wolfe.

The Dolphins and Fangio parted ways after one season. Questions about Holland's perception of Fangio grew after the safety posted a video of him kicking rocks following news of Fangio's departure.

Miami's defense ranked 22nd in points allowed and 10th in yardage allowed under Fangio, who rejoined the Philadelphia Eagles this offseason to serve as their defensive coordinator.

Weaver spent the last three seasons as the Ravens' defensive line coach. He was previously the Houston Texans' defensive coordinator in 2020.

Holland is entering the last year of his rookie contract. However, the safety says he won't let contract talks affect his "day-to-day."

"I mean, it'd be great to get it done. It's on my mind - like obviously, it's my career," Holland told reporters, including the South Florida Sun Sentinel's Chris Perkins. Holland added, "It's going to come when it's going to come."
