Miami Dolphin Coach Jimmy Johnson added the title of general manager, and two assistants confirmed they will join his staff.

Dolphin owner Wayne Huizenga on Tuesday affirmed Eddie Jones’ role running the team’s business operations as team president and chief operating officer, but gave the general manager title to Johnson.

While the Dolphins weren’t discussing assistant coaching changes, Johnson already has started putting together his coaching team. Former Oklahoma State coach Pat Jones and former Georgia Tech coach Bill Lewis said they have been hired. Jones will be a defensive coach, possibly defensive coordinator, and Lewis will coach the defensive secondary.
