The Miami Dolphins and Carolina Panthers will hold joint practices on Aug. 19 and 20 at Wofford College. These sessions will lead into their preseason game on Aug. 22.

These are the first joint practices for the Dolphins under fourth-year coach Joe Philbin. Increasingly, teams around the NFL are doing this to get a better evaluation of their players in a controlled practice environment.

There will be a lot of stars in these sessions, led by two quarterbacks who just received big contract extensions this offseason in Miami’s Ryan Tannehill ($96 million) and Carolina’s Cam Newton ($103.8 million). Carolina offensive lineman Jonathan Martin, who was involved in a high-profile bullying scandal in Miami in 2013, also will face his former team for the first time.
