Miami Dolphins owner Stephen Ross paid to send family members of players, coaching staff and administration to Los Angeles on Friday night to avoid Hurricane Irma.
The team traveled nine days before kickoff to Southern California in preparation for Miami's Week 2 game against the Los Angeles Chargers. This will be the Dolphins' first regular-season game after Sunday's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was postponed until Week 11 because of the storm.
The Dallas Cowboys and Los Angeles Rams were helpful to the Dolphins, and both teams offered use of their facilities.
