Jason Sanders makes 52-yard field goal as time expires and Dolphins rally past Jaguars 20-17

Associated Press  

MIAMI GARDENS, Fla. — For the Miami Dolphins, the day started with chaos and ended with celebration. Jason Sanders nailed a 52-yard field goal as time expired, and the Dolphins — on probably one of the more bizarre days in their history, one where two players were placed in handcuffs outside the stadium a few hours before kickoff — rallied past the Jacksonville Jaguars 20-17 on Sunday to win their fourth straight season opener. That was it.” Tyreek Hill started the comeback with 80-yard touchdown catch that sparked Miami’s sluggish offense in the third quarter and got the Dolphins within 17-14. Sanders tied the game with a 36-yard field goal with 4:22 left, and the Dolphins’ defense stepped up from there, sacking Trevor Lawrence on consecutive plays to set up Tagovailoa for the winning drive. “Obviously turnovers are killers, especially down in the red zone,” Lawrence said, “but I thought Travis did a good job of bouncing back and keeping his head in the game.. We still had plenty of time in the game, and we have to be able to handle the adversity and go score in the next series.” After the Dolphins got a fourth-down stop on Jacksonville’s next drive, Sanders missed a 42-yard field goal that would have tied it.
