Who are the referees assigned for Packers vs. Dolphins? Officials for Week 13 TNF game explored

After a run of one win in seven games, the Miami Dolphins are basking in the excitement of a three-game winning streak. They will be looking to make it four wins on a bounce when they play on the road against the Green Bay Packers on Thursday night in the third of the three Thanksgiving Day schedules.

Since returning from a four-game absence due to a head injury, Miami's quarterback Tua Tagovailoa has been playing at an exceptional level. He completed 72.5% of his throws for 317 yards and four scores in the 34-15 victory over the New England Patriots in Week 12.

Here is a look at the officials overseeing the Dolphins' Thursday game against the Green Bay Packers, which could put them one step closer to sealing a postseason berth.

Shawn Smith started his NFL officiating career in 2015 as an umpire before being promoted to referee for the 2018 campaign.

Smith will referee Green Bay's game for the first time since 2022 during today's Thanksgiving Day game. His last game in charge of a game involving the Packers came in November 2022, a game the team lost 40-33 to the Philadelphia Eagles.

In addition, this will be the first time the head referee will oversee a Miami Dolphins game since their 24-17 win over the New England Patriots in Week 2 of last season.

Smith and his officiating crew are ninth in the NFL, with an average of 15 flags thrown per game this season.

The last time the crew officiated an NFL game was at Arrowhead Stadium in Week 12. Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs defeated the Carolina Panthers 30–27 in that game. The Chiefs were on the receiving end of 10 of the 19 penalties during the game, while the Panthers had nine.
