Jalen Ramsey’s trade situation continues to brew as the Dolphins hold on to the star cornerback, while the Rams loom as a potential destination for a reunion. Ramsey, who made a significant impact during his tenure in Los Angeles, has been a focal point of trade discussions ever since Miami signaled their intention to explore options for moving him.
Rams head coach Sean McVay has openly expressed interest in reuniting with Ramsey, underscoring the strategic importance of elevating the team’s defense. McVay pointed out that any deal would hinge on two key factors: managing Ramsey’s contract and finding satisfactory compensation that aligns with both franchises’ goals. “Usually, those are scenarios and situations that you have to have plans in place prior to executing some of the decisions that have occurred,” McVay noted. His words reflect a careful balancing act; while the Rams are eager to bring in someone of Ramsey’s caliber, they must navigate real financial and strategic hurdles in the process.
One potential avenue to smooth the path to a trade would be for the Dolphins to retain a portion of Ramsey’s salary, which could ease the financial burden for Los Angeles. However, as of now, everything remains in a holding pattern. Ramsey, a marquee name on the trading block, is waiting for the right opportunity to arise, while the Rams weigh their options for improvement. For now, both teams are assessing the landscape, and Ramsey’s next move is anything but certain.
