Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino has returned to the Dolphins.  Again.

via ProFootballTalk:

Barry Jackson of the Miami Herald recently reported that Marino will be a “special advisor” to owner Stephen Ross and team president Tom Garfinkel.  That news comes nearly three months after Armando Salquero of the Herald reported that Marino and the team can’t figure out a role.

A decade ago, Marino and former owner Wayne Huizenga worked out a role for Marino.  And he quit after only three weeks.

The last time, Marino assumed a John Elway-style role, which included Marino actually being involved in making football decisions and, perhaps more significantly, participating in the hours and hours and hours of grind-it-out tedium that needed to be tended to before good decisions could be made.  This time, Marino will have no formal involvement in football operations, a source with knowledge of the situation tells PFT.

Instead, Marino will serve as a true advisor, also playing a significant role in community and business initiatives relating to topics such as ticket sales and stadium renovations.
