Dolphins (1-1) vs. Eagles (1-1)

- — Omar Kelly

Kickoff: Today, 7 p.m.; Lincoln Financial Field, Philadelph­ia TV: CBS (Ch: 4 in Miami-Dade/Broward), WTVX-CW (Ch: 34 in Palm Beach); 560-AM, 99.9-FM, 1140-AM (Spanish); 106.3-FM (West Palm Beach) 760-AM (West Palm Beach; Spanish)

Miami’s Adam Gase (10-6 overall); Philadelph­ia’s Doug Peterson (7-9 overall)

Dolphins lead the series 8-6 in the regular season, and 5-4 in the preseason. Eagles by 3 1/2

TE Chris Pantale (concussion), LB Neville Hewitt (back), LB Rey Maualuga (coaches decision), S Jordan Lucas (groin), OG Kraig Urbik (knee), Brandon Watts (back) are out. OT Ja’Wuan James (shoulder), FS Nate Allen (groin) and RB Kenyan Drake (concussion) are probable. QB Nick Foles (elbow), LB Jordan Hicks (groin), WR Bryce Treggs (calf), DE Brandon Graham (triceps); DE Derek Barnett (leg) are all questionab­le.

Miami’s starters will likely play the entire first half, and might handle a series in the third quarter. … Carson Wentz set an NFL rookie record last season with 379 completion­s. His 3,782 passing yards was the fourth-highest total for a rookie behind only Andrew Luck in 2012, Cam Newton in 2011 and Jameis Winston in 2015. The Eagles added three new offensive weapons — tailback LeGarrette Blount and receivers Alshon Jeffery and Torrey Smith — to help get Philadelph­ia’s offense to the next level. … This will be the first and only preseason game Miami’s starting offensive line plays until the season opener, so expect the Dolphins to work on the run game, and play-action passing attack. Don’t expect center Mike Pouncey to be on the field for more than two dozen snaps.
