Some breaking NFL news on the Miami Dolphins. It was announced on Friday that Wayne Huizenga has agreed to sell 50% of the Miami Dolphins to real estate developer Stephen Ross.

The deal is subject to NFL approval. Financial terms were not disclosed.

Under the terms of the deal, Ross will be an active partner with the possibility of becoming a managing general partner in the future, but Huizenga will continue to run the franchise as managing general partner.

The sale continued months of chaos and upheaval within the Miami Dolphins franchise.

Ending of a miserable 1-15 season in 2007, coach Cam Cameron and general manager Randy Mueller were dismissed.

Huizenga hired Parcells as executive vice-president of football operations; he has overseen a complete rebuilding project, hiring Jeff Ireland as GM and also installing Tony Sparano as head coach.

Lots of other changes have taken place throughout the franchise, and Parcells has most recently wanted to rebuild the roster by releasing seven-time Pro Bowl linebacker Zach Thomas.
