Rams trade away Jalen Ramsey to Super Bowl chasing Dolphins

The Los Angeles Rams have officially traded cornerback Jalen Ramsey to the Miami Dolphins.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport broke the news that the two teams were engaged in trade talks. And then within hours, the two teams made it official.

It was reported that the Rams would be getting a 2023 third-round pick (No. 77) and tight end Hunter Long as part of the deal.

With everything now finalized between the two teams, the CB will officially become a Dolphin come the beginning of the new league year.

Ramsey has three years left on his current contract. If traded to a new team, he will be due $17 million this season. Next season he would account for $18.5 million and $19.5 million in 2025.

He will likely receive a new contract extension upon being traded. In his seventh season in the NFL, he's earned $82.1 million.

At age 28, Ramsey still has a lot left in the tank. He's a three-time first-team All-Pro, six-time Pro Bowler, and is a Super Bowl champion.

He's recorded 452 tackles, 92 pass break ups, 19 interceptions, four forced fumbles, and two fumble recoveries in his career.

He's still one of the most shut-down cornerbacks in the league and provides veteran leadership to the locker room.
