The Miami Dolphins are set to face the Chicago Bears in the final game of the first week of the NFL preseason. This matchup comes shortly after a notable incident between Dolphins wide receiver Dee Escridge and Bears Safety Kevin Byard during their joint practice, which resulted in a few skirmishes. Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel hasn’t officially announced if the starters will be on the field today. He mentioned on Friday that he hopes to get them some playing time, but has yet to make any concrete decisions.
