MIAMI GARDENS ― The Miami Dolphins are holding training camp practice 8 at the Baptist Health Training Complex on Friday, Aug. 7, in front of fans and media.
First-year coach Jeff Hafley and the Dolphins will have one more practice this week: at Hard Rock Stadium on Saturday.
Fans have been focused on quarterback Malik Willis, running back De’Von Achane, guard Kadyn Proctor, wide receiver Caleb Douglas, defensive lineman Zach Sieler, linebacker Jordyn Brooks, cornerback Chris Johnson and linebacker Jacob Rodriguez.

Offensive line welcomes Austin Jackson back
Right tackle Austin Jackson is back working today after missing practices earlier in the week. Hafley had said Jackson’s injury was more of a short-term problem than long term and he expected Jackson back shortly.
Dolphins coaches and players had stressed the importance of giving the ideal starting five offensive linemen as many practice reps together as possible. Now, they’re back on track to do that.
Practice begins, and it’ll be awhile before it ends
Hafley warned before the workout that this would be a more intense practice. And it won’t be short.
Players are stretching indoors. They’ll be heading outside later.
Here’s what to expect from the stadium practice
The Dolphins will hold their annual stadium practice starting at 10:15 a.m. Saturday, Aug. 8.
The Dolphins are calling this a practice rather than a scrimmage, which has been the case in many previous years.
