59th season in franchise history
The 2024 season is the Miami Dolphins ' 55th season in the National Football League (NFL), their 59th overall, their ninth under general manager Chris Grier and their third under head coach Mike McDaniel . The Dolphins failed to improve on their 11–6 record from last year following a loss to the division rival Buffalo Bills in Week 9. They then guaranteed a worse record following a loss to the Green Bay Packers in Week 13. They still have a chance to make the playoffs for the third consecutive season. They will also attempt to snap their 23-year playoff victory drought, which is the longest active drought in the NFL .
