Preseason opponents

Thursday, Aug. 8

Atlanta at Miami

dium

Television: WFOR-TV

(Miami)

Preseason series record:

Miami leads 9-8

Last preseason meet-

ing: 2018 at Atlanta;

Dolphins 34, Falcons 7

Scouting report: The Falcons are hoping to

bounce back in 2019 after missing the playoffs

when their season unraveled after a rash of in-

juries on defense. Atlanta remains a potent of-

fensive team thanks to QB Matt Ryan and WR

Julio Jones, and the Falcons added tackle Kaleb

McGary in the first round of the 2019 draft.

Worth noting: This will mark the third time in

six years the Dolphins open the preseason

against Atlanta (also in 2014, 2017).

Preseason series

record: Dolphins lead

6-4

Last preseason meet-

ing: 2013 at Jack-

sonville; Dolphins 27,

Jaguars 3

Scouting report: The Jaguars made a huge

move in the offseason when they released QB

Blake Bortles and signed former Eagles

backup and Super Bowl hero Nick Foles to a

big free agent contract. The defense got a

boost with first-round pick Josh Allen, the pass-

rushing phenom from Kentucky.

Worth noting: The Dolphins have won the past

five preseason meetings, including one-point

victories in 2008 and 2010.

Scouting report: The Saints have made few

changes since last season when they suffered

a controversial playoff loss. The one change is

at running back where Latavius Murray has re-

placed Mark Ingram. Quarterback Drew Brees

still leads the way.

Worth noting: This will be the seventh consec-

utive preseason game between the teams that

will come in the final week of the preseason.
