Here’s everything you need to know about Thursday’s Dolphins-Ravens game
The Miami Dolphins will face the Baltimore Ravens on Thursday as Lamar Jackson returns to South Florida for the first time since 2025.
Here’s what you need to know:
When is the game?
Thursday’s game starts at 8:15 p.m.
Where is the game?
The game will be played at Hard Rock Stadium in Miami Gardens.
How can I watch the game?
The game can be watched on Amazon Prime or NFL+. Local viewers can also tune in via CBS 4 Miami.
How can I get there?
Prior to the Dolphins’ home opener, the team announced some changes to transportation. Here they are, directly from the team: 1). The Dolphins will run a complimentary shuttle service to and from Hard Rock Stadium before and after games. (The team identifies the shuttle as the Geico HRS Express.) Fans can arrive at Lot 70 (Seminole Hard Rock Hotel) or Lot 95 (Golden Glades Parking Garage) and hop on the shuttle for direct access to and from the stadium. Fans can purchase a $10 parking pass at Lot 70 or Lot 95 and ride the shuttle at no charge to and from the stadium.
2). The Dolphins say they “strongly encourage ride-share users to take the” shuttle. Last season, nearly 10% of fans attending games used the shuttle.
3). The Dolphins have created “the 305 and 954 Social Clubs.” The team says they “provide vibrant and energetic atmospheres for up to 160 fans (21+) to catch the action on the field, while socializing with people of similar ages. Fans will enjoy drink specials in the social, bar-style terrace and atmosphere with both seated and standing room areas.” Tickets for the 305 and 954 Social Clubs start at $95. That cost also includes a post-game shuttle, directly to Las Olas Boulevard in Fort Lauderdale or Brickell Avenue in Miami.
Planning to park at Hard Rock Stadium? Just make sure you prepurchased a parking pass!
Who isn’t suiting up?
As of Thursday morning, the Dolphins will be without tight end Julian Hill (ankle).
Safety Ashtyn Davis (quadricep) is doubtful.
Four players — edge rusher Bradley Chubb (shoulder/ foot), receiver Dee Eskridge (shoulder), cornerback Jason Marshall Jr. (hamstring) and safety Ifeatu Melifonwu (thumb) — are questionable.
What’s the significance of Thursday’s game?
There’s an argument to be made that the winner of this game can turn their season around.
The Dolphins offense and defense finally clicked against the Atlanta Falcons, while Lamar Jackson will finally make his long awaited return from injury. Even better: both teams are coming off a win.
Throw in the fact that this will be Jackson’s first game in South Florida since 2021 and this has all the makings of a good game.
