The NFL has moved the kickoff for Miami's game in Week 2 against the Oakland Raiders from 4:15 p.m. EDT to 1 p.m. because of the Jewish holiday Rosh Hashanah.

The Raiders-Dolphins game is the only one being moved on Sept. 16, with the early start giving Jewish fans a chance to be home before the new year's holiday begins at sundown.
