The Miracle in Miami, also known as the Miami Miracle, was an American football play that took place at the end of a National Football League regular season game on December 9, 2018, between the Miami Dolphins and the New England Patriots.[2][3] It was the first walk-off game-winning touchdown in NFL history to involve multiple lateral passes, and the first multi-lateral touchdown since the River City Relay in December 2003. After the game, the play was known by several names, most commonly the "Miami Miracle"[4][5] and the "Miracle in Miami".[6][7] The play went on to win the Bridgestone Performance Play of the Year Award at the 8th Annual NFL Honors awards show on February 2.[8]
