The Miami Dolphins have re-signed linebackers coach and run game coordinator Joe Barry to a new multi-year contract extension, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Barry, a long-time veteran coach and former defensive coordinator, is set to remain a vital fixture on the Dolphins' defensive staff. Per the report, Barry will serve as a key voice and mentor for the team's new defensive coordinator, Sean Duggan.

In his dual role, Barry oversees the development of the linebacker corps while coordinating the team's run defense schemes. His retention highlights the organization's commitment to maintaining experienced leadership under the new defensive structure. Barry brings decades of NFL experience to the table, having previously served as a defensive coordinator for multiple franchises, including the Green Bay Packers and Washington Commanders.
