Chandler Henley joined the Miami Dolphins as assistant quarterbacks coach in 2022.

The 2022 season marks the 11th year of coaching for Henley, including six at the collegiate level and five in the NFL. He has coached a variety of positions on offense.

Henley spent the 2021 season with the Atlanta Falcons as assistant offensive line coach. He worked with a young offensive line – only one starter was over 26 years old – that helped protect quarterback Matt Ryan, who passed for 3,968 yards. The unit also paved the way for running back Cordarrelle Patterson to total a career-high 1,166 yards from scrimmage in his first season as a full-time starting running back.

From 2018-20, Henley was a quality control coach for the Tennessee Titans, where he worked primarily with the offensive line. During his three seasons there, the Titans were second in the NFL, averaging 144.5 rushing yards per game. Tennessee posted winning seasons in all three years, advanced to the AFC Championship game in 2019 and won 11 games and the AFC South in 2020.

In 2020, the Titans were second in rushing offense (168.1), tied for second in total offense (396.4), fourth in scoring offense (30.7) and sixth in fewest sacks allowed (25). Running back Derrick Henry was named NFL Offensive Player of the Year after rushing for 2,027 yards and 17 touchdowns.

The 2019 Titans finished 9-7 but won playoff games at New England and Baltimore to advance to the AFC Championship game. Henry rushed for an NFL-leading 1,540 yards and 16 touchdowns, earning second- team All-Pro recognition and Pro Bowl honors. Tennessee's rushing attack was third in the league (138.9) and its scoring offense ranked 10th (25.1). Quarterback Ryan Tannehill was the NFL's highest-ranked passer (117.5).

In 2018, Henley helped tackle Taylor Lewan earn his third consecutive Pro Bowl appearance. The Titans won nine games despite using multiple quarterbacks. Henry totaled 1,059 rushing yards and 12 rushing touchdowns and the rushing offense was seventh (126.4) in the league.

Henley was the tight ends coach at his alma mater, Yale, from 2015-17. In 2017, Yale went 9-1 and earned its first outright Ivy League championship since 1980. Henley mentored tight end Jaeden Graham, who earned first-team All-Ivy League honors and went on to play for the Atlanta Falcons.

Henley's first coaching position came at Vanderbilt, where he served as offensive/recruiting graduate assistant from 2012-13 and worked with the running backs and wide receivers. He added assistant quarterback coach responsibilities in 2014. Vanderbilt won nine games in back-to-back seasons for the first time in history in 2012-13.

Prior to coaching, Henley worked in sales for IBM and Google. He also worked as a part-time researcher for NBC's Football Night in America.

Henley played wide receiver at Yale from 2002-06, recording 110 career receptions for 1,609 yards (14.6 avg.) and 11 touchdowns. In 2006, as the sole captain of an Ivy League championship team, he led the team in receptions, yards and touchdowns.

A native of Littleton, Colorado, Henley graduated with a bachelor's degree in sociology from Yale and earned a master's degree in higher education administration from Vanderbilt. He lives in Miami Lakes with his wife, Noelle, and step-daughter, Mia.
