DAVIE, Fla. -- There’s no such thing as a normal season opener for the Miami Dolphins in recent years.
In 2017, Hurricane Irma postponed their Week 1 contest, forcing them to play 16 consecutive games without a bye week. In their 2018 opener Sunday, they played the longest game in NFL history because of four hours of lightning delays.
But a 27-20 victory over the Titans in Ryan Tannehill’s first real action in 637 days made the chaos of Sunday even better.
“It was great to be back out here,” Tannehill said.
