• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Not expected to attend minicamp

  Rotowire Jun 8, 2025

  Ramsey is not planning to attend the Dolphins' mandatory minicamp during the coming week, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. It was reported in mid-April that Ramsey and the Dolphins were mutually interested in parting ways via a trade, and that sentiment doesn't seem to have changed on either side. Though a deal hasn't come to fruition yet, Joe Schad of The Palm Beach Post suggested in late May that the Rams, Cowboys and Commanders could be possible suitors. Per Rapoport, Ramsey intends to stay away from the Dolphins until the situation is resolved.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Time in Miami nearing end

  Rotowire Apr 15, 2025

  Dolphins general manager Chris Grier said Tuesday that after numerous conversations with Ramsey "we decided it was probably in the best interest for all parties to move forward [separately]", Adam Schefter of ESPN reports. Miami has already paid out $4 million of the fully guaranteed $25.1 million that Ramsey is due in 2025 as a roster bonus, while $18.98 million of the remaining amount comes as a bonus due in Week 1 which can be spread across future seasons, making his contract relatively trade-friendly. Ramsey played all 17 regular-season games for the Dolphins in 2024 and remained a high-end starter, though failed to earn a Pro Bowl nod for the first time since his rookie year. There should be no shortage of teams interested in trading for Ramsey, though in the event that no deal can be worked out, Grier said "if he's here, we'll deal with it."

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Trade might be coming

  Rotowire Apr 15, 2025

  Ramsey and the Dolphins are exploring options for a trade, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Ramsey signed a three-year extension in September, but the length was mostly a vehicle for short-term cap savings -- there's no guaranteed money beyond 2025. He does have a full guarantee for his $25.1 million in compensation this year, including a $4 million roster bonus the Dolphins already paid. Most of the money ($18.98 million) comes from an option bonus that's due Week 1 and spreads the cap burden to future seasons, making the 30-year-old cornerback a viable trade target for teams without much wiggle room under the 2025 cap. Multiple teams figure to be interested in a trade, considering Ramsey played all 17 games last season and earned PFF's No. 10 grade among CBs while recording 60 tackles, 11 pass defenses and two interceptions. He's still a high-quality starter on the perimeter or in the slot, and he has the necessary size and physicality to transition to safety toward the end of his career.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Plays all 17 games in 2024

  Rotowire Jan 20, 2025

  Ramsey racked up 60 tackles (39 solo), including 1.0 sacks, across 17 regular-season games with the Dolphins in 2024. He also had 11 passes defensed, including two interceptions. Ramsey was one of the few stalwart members of Miami's defense during the 2024 campaign, in which he suited up for all of the Dolphins' regular-season games despite entering the year with a hamstring injury. The 30-year-old cornerback remains under contract through 2028, though Miami has a potential 'out' in his contract after the 2025 campaign.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Dealing with knee injury

  Rotowire Nov 20, 2024

  Ramsey (knee) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Ramsey played 100 percent of the Dolphins' defensive snaps and recorded five total tackles and two passes defended, including one interception, in Sunday's win over the Raiders. However, it now appears that he picked up a knee injury in the process. Ramsey's participation Thursday and Friday will likely provide the best indication of whether he can play through the issue in the Week 12 divisional matchup against the Patriots.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Nabs second pick of season

  Rotowire Nov 18, 2024

  Ramsey finished Sunday's 34-19 win over Las Vegas with five solo tackles and two pass defenses (including one interception). Ramsey picked off Gardner Minshew late in the fourth quarter on a pass intended for Jakobi Meyers, which led to a 46-yard field goal from Jason Sanders four plays later. Ramsey has now logged two interceptions over his last three games, and for the year he's up to 40 tackles (26 solo) and six pass defenses (including two interceptions) across 10 regular-season games.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Nabs first pick of season

  Rotowire Nov 4, 2024

  Ramsey recorded one tackle (one solo) and an interception during Sunday's 30-27 loss at Buffalo. Josh Allen wisely avoided targeting Ramsey for most of Sunday's contest, but he was still able to make a mark in Week 9 early in the second quarter by corralling a red-zone pass after it bounced off the fingertips of Keon Coleman. His assignment in Week 10 will be to try to slow down Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua in Los Angeles.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Ready for Thursday

  Rotowire Sep 11, 2024

  Ramsey (hamstring) was left off the Dolphins' injury report Wednesday ahead of Thursday night's matchup with the Bills, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Ramsey has been nursing a hamstring injury over the past week, but it appears he's healthy enough to suit up for Thursday night's divisional matchup. The All-Pro corner helped lead Miami's defense in holding the Jaguars to just 139 passing yards in Week 1, the ninth-best mark in the NFL. Expect Ramsey to line up opposite Kendall Fuller and create problems for Buffalo's wide receivers in Week 2.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Starts week limited

  Rotowire Sep 9, 2024

  Ramsey (hamstring) was listed as a limited participant in Monday's practice estimate, Marcel Louis-Jacques of ESPN.com reports. Ramsey continues to deal with the injury, which has limited him for multiple weeks. However, it's worth noting he was able to play through it in Sunday's win over the Jaguars, and despite an expected limited snap count, Ramsey still logged 38 plays on defense. With just three days to prepare for Thursday's game against the Bills, it's likely the veteran corner will remain limited throughout the week but ultimately suit up for the game.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Suiting up in season opener

  Rotowire Sep 8, 2024

  Ramsey (hamstring) is active for Sunday's game against the Jaguars. Ramsey had been held out of practice since around mid-August before he returned to the field as a limited participant Friday. The cornerback -- who finalized a three-year contract extension that same day -- apparently did enough during the practice to convince the Dolphins he was ready to play in Sunday's season opener, even though he had been listed as questionable heading into the day. Though Ramsey will likely start, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network relays that the 29-year-old is expected to be on something of a pitch count in Week 1 coming off the hamstring issue.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Should play, likely to be limited

  Rotowire Sep 8, 2024

  Ramsey (hamstring), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, is expected to suit up but will likely play on a limited snap count, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Ramsey missed practices Wednesday and Thursday due to the hamstring injury before returning to the field as a limited participant Friday, the same day that he finalized a three-year, $72.3 million contract extension. Even though Ramsey now has some longer-term security with the Dolphins, the coaching staff won't ask him to take on a full workload Sunday, likely due in part to the team facing a quick turnaround for Week 2 with a Thursday matchup with the Bills. Ramsey should be formally cleared when the Dolphins release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to the 1 p.m. ET Week 1 kickoff.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Still sidelined

  Rotowire Aug 14, 2024

  Ramsey (undisclosed) is not practicing Wednesday, David Furones of the South Florida Sun Sentinel reports. Ramsey's injury is not expected to be serious, and head coach Mike McDainel has said that if the veteran had to practice today, he could. It's unclear how long the Dolphins will take the cautious approach or when Ramsey will return to practice.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Re-working contract with Miami

  Rotowire Mar 11, 2024

  The Dolphins plans to clear more than $19 million in cap space by restructuring Ramsey's contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. On a day with a lot of movement around the league, the update from Miami indicates that Ramsey will be sticking around for 2024. He was able to suit up for only 10 games in 2023, and he's set to turn 30 in October, but he still figures as the Dolphins' top cover corner.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Will play at Baltimore

  Rotowire Dec 31, 2023

  Ramsey (knee) is active for Sunday's game at Baltimore. Despite being a limited participant at practice Friday, Ramsey will suit up for the Dolphins in Week 17. Presuming he's not being held back by an injury, he should be Miami's top corner Sunday.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Set to make 2023 debut

  Rotowire Oct 29, 2023

  Ramsey (knee) is active for Sunday's contest against the Patriots. Ramsey was removed from the team's injured reserve list Saturday after ramping up his intensity and reps in practice this week. His return is a welcome one with safety Jevon Holland (concussion) and cornerback Xavien Howard (groin) out for Sunday's game.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Return window opens

  Rotowire Oct 18, 2023

  Ramsey (knee) will rejoin the Dolphins for practice Wednesday, opening a 21-day window for his return from injured reserve, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports. Ramsey underwent surgery in late July to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee, but he's nearing a return to action, well before original projections that had him likely to sit out until December. Wolfe adds that Ramsey won't play in Sunday's game against the Eagles, but a Week 8 return against the Patriots could be a realistic outcome for the star cornerback if he progresses through practice as Miami's training staff hopes. Ramsey's return could provide a significant defensive boost for the Dolphins, who are off to a 5-1 start primarily due to their league-best offense, which is averaging 37.2 points per game.

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: Expected to miss most of season

  Rotowire Jul 28, 2023

  Ramsey (knee) had his left meniscus repaired Friday and is expected to miss most of the 2023 season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. The report says Ramsey will be out until December, an outcome he hinted at Thursday when he tweeted that his "end of the season push" would be "legendary." Other players have missed entire seasons after summer meniscus repairs -- including then-Vikings TE Irv Smith in 2021 -- but there's at least some chance for a same-season return in this case, given that Ramsey suffered the injury at the very start of training camp and is on a team with a realistic chance at a deep postseason run. That chance would be better with Ramsey in the Week 1 lineup, of course, but the Dolphins still have a respectable-looking CB group between standout Xavien Howard, slot man Kader Kohou, second-round rookie Cam Smith and former slot starter Nik Needham. They've also got thee starting-caliber safeties in Jevon Holland, DeShon Elliott and Brandon Jones

• Dolphins' Jalen Ramsey: MRI coming

  Rotowire Jul 27, 2023

  Ramsey (knee) is undergoing an MRI on his left knee in the near future, Alain Poupart of Sports Illustrated reports. After colliding with All-Pro wideout Tyreek Hill during Thursday's training camp, Ramsey was carted off the field with a left knee injury. The three-time All-Pro was acquired by Miami this offseason for a 2023 third-round pick. The MRI will tell us more about the seriousness of the stud cornerback's injury.

  Rotowire Jul 27, 2023

  Ramsey was carted to the locker room after suffering an injury during practice to what appeared to be his left knee Thursday, Cameron Wolfe of NFL Network reports. A big offseason addition for Miami, Ramsey's tenure isn't off to a good start. After grabbing his left knee following a play guarding Tyreek Hill, the six-time Pro Bowl cornerback was checked out by trainers on the sideline. The extent of his injury is unknown for now.

• Rams' Jalen Ramsey: Snags two picks in season finale

  Rotowire Jan 9, 2023

  Ramsey recorded five solo tackles, two interceptions and three pass defenses during Sunday's 19-16 overtime loss to the Seahawks. Ramsey was able to effectively blanket DK Metcalf, and both of the veteran cornerback's interceptions did indeed come on targets to the star wideout. Ramsey didn't wait long to notch the first pick, as he was able to get in front of Geno Smith's first pass and return the ball all the way back to the Seahawks' 11-yard line, setting up a Matt Gay field goal a few plays later. Ramsey's fourth year with the Rams saw him log career highs in tackles (88) and forced fumbles (three), and he also tied a career high with four interceptions. With three years left on the five-year, $100 million contract extension he signed in 2020, Ramsey will look to continue his lock-down coverage for the Rams in 2023.
