"MIAMI GARDENS - The Miami Dolphins-Cincinnati Bengals game on Sunday, Dec. 21 at Hard Rock Stadium has been moved to a 1 p.m. start time, the NFL announced late Monday afternoon. The game, originally scheduled for an 8 p.m. start, will be televised on CBS. Instead of Dolphins vs. Bengals, the NFL will televise the New England Patriots' game against the Baltimore Ravens in that Sunday night slot."
"The change to the Miami-Cincinnati start time means the Dolphins (6-7), who are on a four-game winning streak and have won five of their past six games, will have one fewer prime time TV game this season. When the Dolphins-Bengals game was originally scheduled it seemed as though it would be a crucial game for the AFC playoff picture with Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa battling Cincinnati quarterback Joe Burrow in a high-profile matchup."
"The Bengals are 4-9 and just learned that edge rusher Trey Hendrickson, one of the league's best, will be sidelined for the remainder of the season after he has abdominal surgery. The last time the Dolphins and Bengals played was 2022, a 27-15 Cincinnati victory that saw Tagovailoa briefly hospitalized after sustaining a concussion in a nationally-televised Thursday night game."

The New England Patriots-Baltimore Ravens matchup will occupy the original Sunday night slot. The Dolphins (6-7) are on a four-game winning streak and have won five of six, but lose a prime-time TV appearance. The Bengals are 4-9 and will be without edge rusher Trey Hendrickson for the remainder of the season after abdominal surgery. The teams last met in 2022, a 27-15 Cincinnati win that included Tua Tagovailoa sustaining a concussion. Miami's next prime-time game is Monday night at Pittsburgh.
