A clearly emotional Mike McDaniel raves about how the Dolphins handled adversity in Week 1

Associated Press  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — The Miami Dolphins are 1-0. The big story in the NFL on Sunday — wide receiver Tyreek Hill placed in handcuffs and seen laying face down on a street adjacent to the stadium hours before the season opener, along with defensive lineman Calais Campbell also briefly handcuffed after he attempted to intervene — remained the big story on Monday. “I would venture to guess that one of the favorite parts of being in the NFL and being on an NFL team is that we are able to immerse ourselves into something that’s a tangible goal, that you have some control over,” McDaniel said Monday, clearly emotional at times. “I think a lot of times, it’s therapeutic to be in the process of NFL game week, a Thursday night division opponent. Miami led the NFL with 103 penalty yards on Sunday, the Dolphins’ most in their last 102 games including playoffs.
