- The Steelers have agreed to Ramsey’s $26.6 million salary for 2025 and secured Smith on a one-year, $12 million extension to bolster their defense.
- Fitzpatrick returns to Miami after starring elsewhere as a Pro Bowl safety, providing immediate reinforcement to the Dolphins’ secondary.

- The deal underscores both franchises’ roster management strategies, with Pittsburgh acquiring proven talent and Miami exchanging experience for future draft capital.
