Dolphins To Host QB Matt Flynn

Flynn will head to Miami following his visit with the Seattle Seahawks, where former Green Bay Packers personnel executive John Schneider is now general manager. Dolphins head coach Joe Philbin was the Packers offensive coordinator prior to landing the Miami job.

Miami has been in the hunt for Peyton Manning, meeting with him in Indianapolis earlier this week, but their chances of landing the four-time NFL MVP are "dwindling", Schefter adds.

A 2008 seventh-round pick out of LSU, Flynn has completed 82-of-132 (62.1 percent) pass attempts for 1,015 yards with nine touchdowns and five interceptions in limited action, but set a Packers single-game record with six touchdown passes in the regular season finale against the Detroit Lions. The 26-year-old is regarded as the No. 2 quarterback on the free agent market.
