Overview

  • The Dolphins and Ramsey agreed in April to explore a trade following his record 2024 contract extension and ahead of the 2025 season.
  • Waiting until June 1 allows Miami to split Ramsey’s dead-cap hit over two seasons, saving $5.9 million in 2025 salary cap space.
  • The Los Angeles Rams have emerged as the leading suitor given their defensive needs and coach Sean McVay’s continued interest.
  • Ramsey’s cryptic social media posts—“5…” and “a new chapter awaits”—have intensified expectations of an imminent move.
  • Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel has declined to comment on Ramsey’s predicament, while teams like the Cowboys and Commanders remain in the mix.
