Miami reportedly exploring trading standout cornerback
Nine days before the start of the NFL draft and add another veteran who could be on the trade market before or during the selection process.
Tuesday morning, NFL Media reported that the Miami Dolphins will explore trading perennial Pro Bowl cornerback Jalen Ramsey.
The #Dolphins and seven-time Pro Bowl CB Jalen Ramsey are mutually set to explore trade options and it wouldn’t be a surprise if he played elsewhere in 2025, per me and @TomPelissero.

It would not be a surprise if the Las Vegas Raiders would be interested in acquiring Ramsey.
The Raiders reportedly had interest in signing a top free agent, such as Byron Murphy (he re-signed with Minnesota Vikings for big dollars) and they remain thin at the position. Las Vegas recently waived starter Jack Jones and currently have newly signed Eric Stokes, Decamerion Richardson and Jakorian Bennett as their outside cornerbacks.
Ramsey is a Pete Carroll-type cornerback as he stands at 6-1 and weighs 209. He also has 33,3/8 inch arms, so he has the size Carroll covets.
Ramsey has a big contract, but the Raiders have the salary-cap room to make it fit.
Ramsey turns 31 in October and has already been traded twice, so the Dolphins are poised make it that all three of Ramsey’s teams have decided to trade him.
The 2024 season broke a seven-year streak in which Ramsey made the Pro Bowl. He has been a three-time first-team All-Pro, the last such honor coming in 2021.
Ramsey has 24 career interceptions and he had two in 2024. He has dealt with injuries in multiple season, but he did play all 17 games for the Dolphins last season.
