Dolphins-Buccaneers game will NOT take place in Philadelphia

As it turns out, Philadelphia will NOT be hosting the Miami Dolphins versus Tampa Bay Buccaneers game. The game has been postponed to Week 11, according to an official announcement from the NFL.

It was reported on Tuesday that Lincoln Financial Field (as well as Heinz Field in Pittsburgh) was being considered as a potential host site following news that the game wouldn’t be allowed to take place in Miami due to the threat of Category 5 storm Hurricane Irma. Instead, the NFL just decided to push the game back since both teams share a mutual bye in Week 11.
