The Dolphins are monitoring Hurricane Irma, which is projected to grow into a category 4 storm and could threaten South Florida ahead of Sunday's season opener against Tampa Bay at Hard Rock Stadium.
As of now there are no plans to delay or move the game. But if South Florida is threatened by the storm it's worth noting the Dolphins and Buccaneers have the same bye week, Nov. 19.
Last season Hurricane Matthew posed a threat to the Oct. 9 game against Tennessee at Hard Rock Stadium. The storm eventually curved away from South Florida and hit northeast Florida.
