Bobby Slowik joined the Miami Dolphins as senior pass game coordinator in 2025.

The 2025 season marks Slowik's 13th season in the NFL, including 12 years of coaching and one year as a video assistant.

Prior to joining the Dolphins, Slowik was the offensive coordinator with the Houston Texans for two seasons (2023-24).

In 2024, Slowik oversaw an offense that helped the team to a 10-7 overall record, the AFC South title and the eighth playoff berth in franchise history. In his second season as offensive coordinator, the Texans progressed to the Divisional Round, marking only the second time in franchise history the team did so in back-to-back seasons (2012-13). Quarterback C.J. Stroud completed 336-of-532 passes for 3,727 yards and 20 touchdowns. His 336 completions ranked fifth-most in the AFC in 2024. Within Stroud's first two seasons, he set a franchise record for most yards (7,835) and completions (655) in that span while also becoming the first Texans quarterback to record two playoff wins. Three offensive players – tackle Laremy Tunsil, running back Joe Mixon and wide receiver Nico Collins – earned Pro Bowl selections.

In his first year as Houston's offensive coordinator in 2023, Slowik directed an offense that ranked seventh in the NFL in yards per game (245.5) and second in pass plays over 25 yards (41). Slowik oversaw the development of Stroud in his rookie season and helped him compose a historic rookie season. Stroud completed 319-of-499 passes for 4,108 yards, 23 touchdowns, five interceptions and a passer rating of 100.8. He totaled 4,557 yards including the postseason, which was second-most by a rookie in NFL history. Stroud also led the NFL in pass yards per game (273.9) and was named the PFWA Offensive Rookie of the Year for 2023. The Texans offense maintained possession of the ball, totaling the fewest turnovers by an NFL offense in 2023 (14). The Texans finished 11-8, won their seventh AFC South title and a playoff berth.

Prior to joining the Texans, Slowik spent six seasons (2017-22) with the San Francisco 49ers. He was promoted to game coordinator (2022) after serving one season as game specialist (2021) and two seasons as an offensive assistant (2019-20). Slowik's first role with the 49ers was on the other side of the ball as a defensive quality control coach (2017-18).

In 2022, Slowik oversaw an attack that ranked 13th in yards per game (226.8), fourth in yards per play (7.53) and seventh in interception rate (1.76 percent) despite the team starting three different quarterbacks throughout the course of the season. Slowik helped develop seventh-round rookie Brock Purdy, who started five games to finish the season with 1,374 yards, 13 touchdowns and a quarterback rating of 107.3.

Slowik coached multiple players who achieved career highs in 2022. Wide receiver Brandon Aiyuk reached career highs in receptions (78), receiving yards (1,015) and touchdowns (8). Tight end George Kittle totaled 11 touchdown receptions en route to a Pro Bowl selection and second-team All-Pro honors.

In 2021, Slowik coached wide receiver Deebo Samuel, who earned his first Pro Bowl selection and first-team All-Pro honors following a season in which he tallied 77 receptions for 1,405 yards (18.2 avg.) and five touchdowns.

After first joining the 49ers staff as a defensive quality control assistant (2017-18), Slowik served as an offensive assistant during the 2019-20 seasons and worked closely with the quarterbacks. In 2019, the 49ers offense ranked first in rushing touchdowns (23), second in points per game (29.9), second in rushing yards per game (144.1) and fourth in total offense (381.1 yards per game). Slowik mentored quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo, who reached several career highs, including yards (3,978) and touchdowns (27) in a season.

Slowik's first NFL coaching role came with the Washington Commanders, where he spent three seasons as a defensive assistant (2011-13). He worked closely with linebacker Ryan Kerrigan who earned his first Pro Bowl selection in 2012. In 2011, Slowik worked closely with a defensive unit that ranked fifth in the NFC in total defense with 339.8 yards allowed per game.

Prior to coaching, Slowik began his NFL career with Washington in 2010 as a video assistant. He was responsible for the breakdown of upcoming opponents' film and assisted the department's operations with the coaching and scouting staffs.

Slowik's family has had a history in the NFL. Throughout his NFL coaching career (1992-2013), his father, Bob, served as the defensive coordinator for the Denver Broncos, Green Bay Packers, Cleveland Browns and Chicago Bears, as well as for the Montreal Alouettes in the CFL. His brother, Ryan, has worked with Miami on the other side of the ball since 2022, currently serving as the defensive backs coach and pass game specialist. Slowik's other brother, Steve, is a pro scout for the San Francisco 49ers.

His mother, Carol, was a pioneer in the sport of women's track and field, claiming the National Collegiate and USTFF championship in the 100-meter hurdles in 1976, while holding the World Record in the 60-yard hurdles and owning the American record in both the 50-meter and 60-meter hurdles indoors. She was named All-American multiple times and competed as a member of the USA National Team.

Slowik attended Michigan Tech where he played wide receiver and studied biomedical engineering. He earned All-GLIAC honors in 2008.
