The Miami Dolphins have agreed to trade three-time All-Pro cornerback Jalen Ramsey to the Pittsburgh Steelers in exchange for three-time All-Pro safety Minkah Fitzpatrick, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Monday.
As a part of the trade, Ramsey will get a $1.5 million raise this season, bringing his 2025 compensation up to $26.6 million, sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter on Monday.
Meanwhile, Fitzpatrick heads back to Miami, where he began his career after the Dolphins selected him 11th overall in the 2018 draft.
Ramsey confirmed he was headed to Pittsburgh, posting to X, “Break my own news! #HereWeGo @steelers.”

Ramsey joins a loaded cornerback group with the Steelers, who signed Darius Slay Jr. in free agency earlier this offseason and also have incumbent starter Joey Porter Jr.
Ramsey becomes the fourth Dolphins captain from last season to exit the squad, joining Terron Armstead (retired), Calais Campbell (Arizona Cardinals) and David Long Jr. (released, now with Tennessee Titans).
