The Miami Dolphins and seven-time Pro Bowl, three-time All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey have mutually agreed to explore trade options ahead of the 2025 NFL season. Ramsey, who signed a three-year extension last September, is due $25.1 million fully guaranteed in 2025, but the Dolphins have already paid a $4 million roster bonus, meaning a new team would owe Ramsey $21.1 million for the upcoming season. Ramsey, rated as the 10th-best CB in 2024 by PFF, played 27 games for the Dolphins, recording 82 tackles, 5 interceptions, and 16 pass defenses. The decision to explore a trade was not initiated by Ramsey requesting a move or a contract adjustment, but rather a mutual agreement after discussions between the team and Ramsey's representation. General Manager Chris Grier emphasized that the move is seen as beneficial for both parties, despite Ramsey's significant contributions to the team. With the NFL Draft just nine days away, completing a trade before the draft would allow the Dolphins to use any acquired draft picks to bolster their roster. Ramsey's potential departure would increase the team's need for cornerback depth, with current options including Kader Kohou, Storm Duck, and Cam Smith. The Dolphins are not pursuing a trade for wide receiver Tyreek Hill, despite earlier speculation. Grier stated that no teams have approached them about trading for Hill, and he would only consider such a move if offered two first-round picks. Grier also clarified that the team is not rebuilding and aims to win in the upcoming season.
