Dolphins Explore Trade Options for Jalen Ramsey

The Miami Dolphins and seven-time Pro Bowl cornerback Jalen Ramsey are mutually set to explore trade options, and it appears increasingly likely he will play elsewhere in 2025. Dolphins GM Chris Brier confirmed that both sides agreed it was in their best interest to move forward separately, largely due to Ramsey's significant contract and its impact on the team's salary cap. Ramsey, who joined the Dolphins from the Los Angeles Rams and signed a three-year, $72 million extension last year, did not meet expectations in the 2024 season and missed the Pro Bowl for the first time since 2019. With the NFL Draft approaching, Miami is reportedly seeking to acquire draft capital by trading Ramsey, and teams such as the Las Vegas Raiders, Minnesota Vikings, Tennessee Titans, and Buffalo Bills are seen as potential landing spots. This move would mark a significant shift for the Dolphins' defense and could impact the balance of power in the AFC East, particularly for rivals like the New England Patriots.
