You can catch Thursday night’s game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the Miami Dolphins from Lincoln Financial Field on television, radio and online, and we’ve got the information on how you can do so.

It can’t be stated enough. The terms “dress rehearsal” and NFL football should never be used interchangeably, but that’s what we have. The Philadelphia Eagles will meet the Miami Dolphins on Thursday, August 24th. The game marks the third preseason contest for both teams.

Hence, the term dress rehearsal. Eagles head coach Doug Pederson said on Tuesday that he wasn’t certain of how long he’d keep the starters in the lineup. Typically, in the third game of the preseason, the starters play into the third quarter of the contest for conditioning sake. Expect them to also get a little action in the third quarter.

Nate Allen, Byron Maxwell and Kiko Alonso all return to Philadelphia as current members of the Dolphins roster. The hope for Eagles fans is Alshon Jeffery and LeGarrette Blount can have trong showings. This game will also go a long way in determining if Corey Clement can make the 53-man roster. The reserves will need to make the most of whatever opportunity they’re given as they’ll have minimal on-field time.
