With the 2026 NFL season set to begin Wednesday, Sept. 9 at Lumen Field – home of the defending Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks – the full Dolphins schedule, including dates and times, will be released Thursday at 8 p.m. ET.<\/p>\n

The NFL will announce its international games Wednesday at 9 a.m. ET on NFL Network\u2019s \u201cGood Morning Football.\u201d<\/p>\n

Coming off a 7-10 finish in 2025, the Dolphins enter the new season following the firings of general manager Chris Grier and head coach Mike McDaniel.<\/p>\n

In their place, the franchise turns to general manager Jon-Eric Sullivan and head coach Jeff Hafley to guide a new era in Miami as the team looks to rebound.<\/p>\n

The first full Sunday of the season will be Sept. 13.<\/p>\n

As of Tuesday, the Dolphins are slated to host eight home games at Hard Rock Stadium and play nine road games.<\/p>\n

Miami will face several high-profile quarterbacks during the season, including Drake Maye of the New England Patriots, who appeared in the Super Bowl a season ago but fell short in the title game; Josh Allen of the Buffalo Bills, who has a 14-3 all time-record (including playoffs) against the Dolphins; Jordan Love of the Green Bay Packers, who previously played under Sullivan and Hafley; Patrick Mahomes of the Kansas City Chiefs, a three-time Super Bowl champion and two-time NFL MVP; Justin Herbert of the Los Angeles Chargers, with McDaniel now serving as the offensive coordinator; and Joe Burrow of the Cincinnati Bengals.<\/p>\n

Based on opponents\u2019 winning percentages in 2025, the Dolphins will have the second-toughest schedule in 2026 (.542), trailing only the Chicago Bears (.550). <\/p>\n
