The 2021 NFL regular-season schedule will be released tonight in a made-for-TV event on NFL Network at 8pm ET. Of course, throughout the day, rumors and leaks will happen to give us a idea of what the Miami Dolphins’ 2021 schedule will look like. Some of those rumors will be just that, rumors that do not pan out, but some of them will be proven accurate and lock in the team’s slate of games.
This year, there are only three preseason games, while there are 17 regular-season contests. Teams’ regular-season schedules consist of their six intra-division games, four games against a division from within their conference, four games against a division from the other conference, two games against the two same conference teams who finish in the same respective position in their division, and now one game against a team that finished in the same respective position in their division from the other conference.
