Overview

  • Jalen Ramsey and the Miami Dolphins have mutually agreed to explore trade options, with the Los Angeles Rams identified as a leading suitor for a potential reunion.
  • Sean McVay confirmed that conversations with multiple teams, including the Rams, are ongoing regarding Ramsey's trade, but no agreement has been finalized yet.
  • The strained relationship between Ramsey and Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel is reportedly irreparable, intensifying the push for a trade.
  • Financial hurdles, including Ramsey's $24 million guaranteed salary for 2025, remain a central obstacle, with Miami reluctant to absorb more of his contract to facilitate a deal.
  • Both the Dolphins and potential trade partners are aiming for a post-June 1 transaction to leverage NFL salary cap rules, which would allow Miami to split the cap hit.
