Dolphins hire Matt Burke as linebackers coach

Matt Burke has been a linebackers coach for the last seven years. Like Vance Joseph, Burke is coming from Cincinnati where he and Joseph spent the previous two seasons. Burke was the linebackers coach for Detroit for five seasons prior to his time in Cincinnati. (Sun Sentinel)
Fantasy Impact:
The standout backer from last season, Jelani Jenkins, slowed a bit this year, primarily due to injury. The Miami linebackers as a whole suffered from injuries all season and were weak against the run. The Dolphins' defense was a great matchup for fantasy offensive players all season. Hopefully the front office can give Burke more to work with in 2016.
