Steelers Land Ramsey, Smith in Major 2025 Trade

The Pittsburgh Steelers and Miami Dolphins completed a significant trade, with All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey and tight end Jonnu Smith, plus a 2027 seventh-round pick, joining the Steelers in exchange for safety Minkah Fitzpatrick and a 2027 fifth-round pick. Jonnu Smith received a one-year, $12 million extension, while Jalen Ramsey secured a $1.5 million raise to earn $26.6 million in 2025. Smith had a record-breaking season with Miami, though his agent indicated he wanted to remain with the Dolphins. Running back Breece Hall publicly supported new Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who cited his relationship with coach Mike Tomlin as influential in his move to Pittsburgh. Young Steelers players Cory Trice Jr. and Darnell Washington are seen as potential breakout contributors for the upcoming season. These roster changes and endorsements signal renewed optimism for the Steelers' 2025 campaign.
