The Miami Dolphins are set to ignite their season at home, marking their second home opener in five years. The Jacksonville Jaguars journey south on I-95 to challenge the Dolphins, who are riding a three-game winning streak in season openers. For fans eager to catch every play, here’s your guide on where to watch the Jacksonville Jaguars vs. Miami Dolphins game live this Sunday.
Miami enters this season with a familiar star-studded lineup despite significant roster changes. Quarterback Tua Tagovailoa, fresh off leading the NFL in passing yards with an impressive 4,624 yards, secured a four-year contract extension. His primary target, Tyreek Hill, etched his name in NFL history by achieving consecutive seasons with over 1,700 receiving yards. Completing this formidable trio, Jaylen Waddle, the first Dolphin to achieve three consecutive 1,000-yard receiving seasons at the start of his career, also received an extension this offseason. Together, Tagovailoa, Hill, and Waddle powered an explosive Miami offense that topped the league with 6,822 total yards and ranked second with 496 points last season. The Dolphins are aiming for their third straight playoff appearance, a feat not seen since the period between 1999 and 2001.

On the other side, the Jacksonville Jaguars narrowly missed their own consecutive playoff berths. After a strong 8-3 start, a setback occurred with an injury to quarterback Trevor Lawrence, impacting their momentum. Despite this, Lawrence led the Jaguars to a respectable 13th-ranked offense in the NFL in 2023, prompting them to further strengthen their offensive capabilities. They drafted Brian Thomas Jr., a standout wide receiver from LSU known for his explosive plays, in the first round. Additionally, they signed Gabe Davis, formerly with Buffalo, to enhance their receiving corps. Recognizing the need for defensive improvement after ranking 22nd last year, Head Coach Doug Pederson brought in Ryan Nielsen from the Falcons as their new defensive coordinator. Nielsen’s arrival is complemented by the addition of former 49ers defensive tackle Arik Armstead, who signed with Jacksonville in March.

This Sunday’s game is more than just a season opener; it’s a pivotal moment in the Dolphins-Jaguars rivalry. Currently tied at five wins each in their 10 historical meetings (excluding Jacksonville’s postseason victory after the 1999 season), this game will determine who takes the lead in their all-time series. Jacksonville claimed the last encounter with a last-second field goal in London in 2021 (23-20), and also won their last game at Hard Rock Stadium in 2018 (17-7). However, Miami secured victory in their most recent stateside match-up, a 31-13 win in 2020.
