The Week 8 row is the Nov. 1 game against New England. Hard Rock Stadium is at 347 Don Shula Drive, Miami Gardens, Florida 33056, per the stadium’s website.
How many Dolphins games are home, away and against division rivals?
Counting the 10 rows from Week 9 to Week 18 gives an even split. These are our own counts from the schedule release:
- Home (5): Detroit, the New York Jets, Chicago, the Los Angeles Chargers and Buffalo.
- Away (5): Indianapolis, Buffalo, Denver, Green Bay and New England.
- American Football Conference (AFC) East games (4): at Buffalo on Nov. 22, against the Jets on Nov. 29, against Buffalo on Jan. 3 and at New England in Week 18.
- TV: FOX has five of the nine dated games (Weeks 9, 11, 13, 15 and 16) and CBS has four (Weeks 10, 12, 14 and 17). Week 18 has no network yet.
The Jets game on Nov. 29 falls on the Sunday after Thanksgiving, which is Thu., Nov. 26, 2026. Our Thanksgiving date page has the holiday itself.
When could a Dolphins game time still change?
The Dolphins’ release marks Weeks 5 to 17 as subject to flexible scheduling, so a Sunday game can move into a different time slot. Under the NFL’s Flexible Scheduling Procedures, Sunday Night Football flex starts in Week 5. Decisions for Weeks 5 to 13 are announced no later than 12 days before the game, and for Weeks 14 to 17 generally no later than six days before. The Week 18 schedule is announced at the conclusion of Week 17.
We subtracted those windows from each date. These are the latest announcement dates, not the dates a change will happen:
| Week | Game date | Latest flex notice | Rule |
|---|---|---|---|
| 9 | Sun., Nov. 8 | Tue., Oct. 27 (passed) | 12 days |
| 10 | Sun., Nov. 15 | Tue., Nov. 3 | 12 days |
| 11 | Sun., Nov. 22 | Tue., Nov. 10 | 12 days |
| 12 | Sun., Nov. 29 | Tue., Nov. 17 | 12 days |
| 13 | Sun., Dec. 6 | Tue., Nov. 24 | 12 days |
| 14 | Sun., Dec. 13 | Mon., Dec. 7 | 6 days, generally |
| 15 | Sun., Dec. 20 | Mon., Dec. 14 | 6 days, generally |
| 16 | Sun., Dec. 27 | Mon., Dec. 21 | 6 days, generally |
| 17 | Sun., Jan. 3, 2027 | Mon., Dec. 28 | 6 days, generally |
Because the Week 9 deadline has passed, the Lions game stays as listed here. For the rest of the NFL’s Week 9 slate, see our Week 9 schedule and pick-em sheet.
Is there a printable Dolphins schedule for 2026?
Yes. The one-page sheet lists Weeks 9 to 18 with the date, ET start time, opponent, home or away, TV and a blank score field, and it has an ink-saver version. Tape it next to the November 2026 printable calendar and the December 2026 printable calendar, and write the Week 18 date in once the NFL sets it. For every team and week, use our printable NFL schedule for 2026-27. The postseason dates are in the NFL playoff schedule for 2027.
Because times can move under flexible scheduling, recheck them on the team’s site or NFL.com before game day. Standings, injuries and playoff odds are not part of the schedule release and are not covered here.
