Where will the Dolphins at Colts game be broadcast? We look at the map.
Following their Week 6 bye, the Miami Dolphins enter Week 7 of the 2024 NFL regular season with a 2-3 record, sitting in second place in the AFC East, and looking to right a lot of the wrongs with which they started the season. The Dolphins have one more game before quarterback Tua Tagovailoa is eligible to be activated off the injured reserve list, giving Tyler Huntley another start for the team in his stead.
The Dolphins head to Indiana this weekend for a game against their former AFC East rivals, the Indianapolis Colts, who are 3-3 on the season. Facing off twice every year until 2002, the two teams were once very familiar. They have not, however, faced each other since 2021. How will this week’s contest play out as both teams look to remain relevant in the AFC playoff picture - Indianapolis enters the weekend in the seventh position, the final wild card spot, while the Dolphins are ninth.
Indianapolis will likely see the return of their starting quarterback, Anthony Richardson. Veteran Joe Flacco has started in Weeks 5 and 6 after taking over for Richardson early in Week 4. Richardson sustained an oblique injury, but is expected to return this weekend.
Can Miami, coming off their bye, look more like a high-octane offense, getting the ball to wide receivers Tyreek Hill and Jaylen Waddle? Will Richardson’s return spark the Colts into a potential run to threaten the Houston Texans at the top of the AFC South, or will they miss the stabilizing presence of Flacco?
FOX will handle this week’s broadcast, with a 1 p.m. Eastern kickoff. However, they are not sending it to much of the country. In Florida, Miami, West Palm Beach, and Fort Myers will have the game for South Florida. After jumping over Tampa and Orlando, which are scheduled to air the Philadelphia Eagles at New York Giants and the Detroit Lions at Minnesota Vikings games respectively, Jacksonville will have the Dolphins game. Pensacola will air the game, though the rest of the panhandle will not.
Outside of Florida, the only area of the country getting the Dolphins at the Colts game is the Indianapolis region, which covers most of Indiana and parts of Illinois, Ohio, and Kentucky.
Kevin Kugler and Daryl Johnston will handle the broadcast coverage duties.
Over on CBS, all of Florida except the immediate Miami area will have the Houston at Green Bay game in the 1 p.m. kickoff slot. Miami will not have an early game, instead picking up the Las Vegas Raiders at Los Angeles Rams game late.
FOX has the doubleheader this week and will air the Kansas City Chiefs at San Francisco 149ers game nationally.
