- On Thursday, Miami Dolphins head coach Jeff Hafley revealed that newly hired passing game coordinator Kevin Patullo told him the Philadelphia Eagles obtained half of the Green Bay Packers' blitz packages from fan-posted training camp videos during the 2024 season opener.

- Newly acquired quarterback Kyle McCord noted that locker rooms often engage in deception to throw opponents off, advising teammates to take online information with a "grain of salt" to avoid strategic disadvantages.
