A former Miami Dolphins 7th-round draft pick (237th overall) has decided to get into coaching.
According to the Chicago Bears’ official site, Isaiah Ford will be joining Ben Johnson’s coaching staff for the 2026 NFL season.
Ford, 30, played four seasons with the Miami Dolphins, catching 63 of 97 targets for 68 yards and 2 touchdowns.
Despite only appearing in 32 career games with the Dolphins (3 Career Starts), he also spent time with the New England Patriots, Indianapolis Colts, and Chicago Bears. During his time in Miami, Ford was given the nickname “boomerang” (It me!) for his ability to always come back, even after being cut from the roster or sent to the practice squad.
Last week, I mentioned the potential of Terrace Marshall Jr. and how he was once on my list of WRs I was excited about. Isaiah Ford was also one of those players. In fact, for those of you who may remember, Aaron Sutton and I did a film breakdown on Ford after he landed in Miami.
Obviously, he never became an all-star player, but he did fill out a vital role on the roster. Hell, he even caught Tua Tagovailoa’s first touchdown pass. And now, despite having a long shot even to make it in the league, he will be an offensive quality control coach under one of the league’s brightest offensive minds.
Goodluck, Isaiah Ford. We’re rooting for you!
