Sunday’s game between the Miami Dolphins and Tennessee Titans in Miami was delayed several times due to lightning in the area. The game which started at 1 pm was delayed at 2:15 p.m. ET and resumed at 4:10 p.m. ET, but was stopped again for a second lightning delay at 4:50 p.m. and finally resumed for a second time at 6:55 pm.
The delays made the contest between the two teams the longest game in NFL history.
🚨 @NFL History 🚨
This is now the longest game since the 1970 NFL/AFL merger.
