A post-June 1 trade would save the Dolphins $10 million compared to a pre-June 1 deal, but it would still leave them with a chunk of dead money.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Teams That Could Be Involved In The Jalen Ramsey Trade Rumors<\/span><\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Los Angeles Rams<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">: Still searching for a true number-one cornerback. The Rams have youth in the secondary but lack a proven lockdown presence. Ramsey already knows the scheme as he spent four years with the Rams and won a Super Bowl with the Rams in 2022. Ramsey would immediately step in as a leader and starter.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Las Vegas Raiders<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">: The Raiders are thin <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">at<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> outside corner, especially after cutting Jack Jones.<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> Their defense struggled to contain elite AFC West offenses, and Ramsey would provide experience and physicality on the boundary.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Atlanta Falcons<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">: Atlanta\u2019s defense could use a veteran presence in the secondary. While A.J. Terrell is solid, the Falcons lack depth and consistent production at corner. Ramsey has a close relationship with Falcons head coach Raheem Morris, who coached him in Los Angeles, and would bring leadership and versatility under new defensive coordinator Jeff Ulbrich.<\/span><\/li>\n<li><strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">Cincinnati Bengals<\/span><\/strong><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">: The Bengals are retooling on defense and lack a dependable veteran at cornerback. Ramsey would give them flexibility and elevate a young, developing secondary, especially in high-pressure situations. Money may be an issue as the Bengals <\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\">are also working<\/span><span data-preserver-spaces=\"true\"> to extend star pass rusher Trey Hendrickson.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<figure id=\"attachment_232861\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-232861\" style=\"width: 800px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-232861\" src=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/USATSI_24665581_168400545_lowres-819x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"800\" height=\"1000\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/USATSI_24665581_168400545_lowres-819x1024.jpg 819w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/USATSI_24665581_168400545_lowres-240x300.jpg 240w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/USATSI_24665581_168400545_lowres-768x960.jpg 768w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/USATSI_24665581_168400545_lowres-1228x1536.jpg 1228w, https:\/\/lastwordonsports.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/5\/2025\/05\/USATSI_24665581_168400545_lowres.jpg 1253w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-232861\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Nov 3, 2024; Orchard Park, New York, USA; Miami Dolphins cornerback Jalen Ramsey (5) warms up prior to the game at Highmark Stadium.
