- The last Dolphins running back with a 100-yard game against the Jets was Jay Ajayi, who had 111 in that November 2016 game.
- The Dolphins have had several memorable receiving performances against the Jets, including 200-yard outings by Mark Duper in 1985 (217 yards) and Nat Moore in 1981 (210), and Mark Ingram's four-touchdown game in the famous Fake Spike Game of 1994.
