Before the Miami Dolphins and Tampa Bay Buccaneers kick off their preseason schedule on Aug. 13, the two teams will hold joint practices in Tampa that week, according to a league source. Joint practice sessions allow teams to work against an opponent during training camp after weeks of being restricted to intra-squad practice reps. Last season, the Dolphins held joint practices against the Bears ahead of their preseason opener in Chicago and then the following week at home against the Atlanta Falcons. Miami’s other two 2022 preseason games are both at Hard Rock Stadium in the Saturdays that follow, against the Las Vegas Raiders and Philadelphia Eagles. Since the NFL expanded its regular-season schedule from 16 games to 17, it has also removed a preseason game off the slate — from four to three. The Dolphins lost to the Buccaneers in Tampa last October in a 45-17 rout in which quarterback Tom Brady threw for 411 yards and five touchdowns.
