The most iconic call of Brian Flores’ coaching career

The Miami Dolphins have found their new head coach in former New England Patriots assistant Brian Flores.

The 37-year-old had spent his entire coaching career with the Pats and played an instrumental part in holding the Los Angeles Rams to just three points in New England’s Super Bowl LIII win last Sunday.

It was a fitting end to Flores’ time with the Patriots, but it was not the only memorable Super Bowl moment for the coach.

Back in Super Bowl XLIX against the Seattle Seahawks, Flores made the decision to put in an undrafted rookie corner named Malcolm Butler when Seattle was at the two-yard line looking to punch it in for the win.

The rest, as you know, is history. Take a look.
