The 2025 NFL schedule will be unveiled in full Wednesday night, but before the curtain is pulled back, many hints, leaks, rumors, and reports will surface.

The league has already announced the date, time, and location for one of the Miami Dolphins‘ 2025 games. On Tuesday, the NFL released its slate of international matchups, which includes a Dolphins home game against the Washington Commanders.

Dolphins Wire is bringing you the latest NFL schedule leaks, rumors and news. Follow along.

In 2024, the Dolphins played the reigning AFC East champs in a Week 2 home game on Thursday Night Football. The NFL may be following a similar script in 2025.

According to OzzyNFL (who was first to report the Commanders would be the Dolphins’ Madrid opponent), the Bills will host the Dolphins for a Thursday night game in Week 3. While it remains to be seen if playing a huge divisional game that early will be good for the Dolphins, avoiding the Buffalo winter would be a huge plus for Miami.

Dolphins will host Commanders in Spain

One of Miami’s 17 games is already set. After several days of rumors, the NFL officially confirmed Tuesday morning that the Commanders will be the road team in the Dolphins’ designated home game at Bernabéu Stadium in Madrid, Spain.

That game will happen in Week 11 on Nov. 16 with kickoff set for 9:30 a.m. ET. Coverage will be provided by NFL Network.
