Jalen Ramsey’s potential return to the Los Angeles Rams continues to gain traction as NFL analysts and insiders propose trade scenarios. The Miami Dolphins, having expressed their intent to part ways with the All-Pro cornerback, appear poised to finalize a move, with the Rams emerging as a top contender.
ESPN analysts have pitched trade ideas that would send Ramsey back to Los Angeles, where he played three seasons and helped secure a Super Bowl victory. The Rams’ familiarity with Ramsey’s skill set and their need to strengthen their secondary make this a logical destination. Miami, in turn, could benefit from offloading Ramsey’s $20.2 million guaranteed salary while acquiring draft capital or financial relief.

Ramsey himself has hinted at his interest in rejoining the Rams, with reports indicating the team is “on his radar.” Despite a lack of recent dialogue between the two organizations, insiders suggest the deal remains viable. The Rams’ significant cap space in 2026 positions them to absorb Ramsey’s contract, addressing a roster need without jeopardizing their financial flexibility.
Proposals from ESPN include potential compensation such as late-round draft picks, with the Rams possibly covering a portion of Ramsey’s salary. This arrangement would allow Miami to move on from a disgruntled player while giving the Rams an opportunity to bolster their defense. The trade would also align with Ramsey’s preference for a familiar environment and competitive team.
ESPN Expert Urges Los Angeles Rams to Trade for Jalen Ramsey

Los Angeles may get to improve for the upcoming season if they manage to land Ramsey in a trade. This is detailed more in a trade proposal by Marcel Louis-Jacques for ESPN.
Daniel Graziano’s offer:
- Dolphins get: 2026 seventh-round pick
- Rams get: Ramsey
Why this deal makes sense for both sides: My feeling is Ramsey gets released rather than traded, but either way, I’d argue the Dolphins aren’t going to get a ton for him. The Rams know and like Ramsey. He likes it in Los Angeles, too. So with this offer, it makes sense for the Rams to flip the pick they got from Baltimore in the Tre’Davious White deal.
Critics have pointed out the risks for both sides, including the Rams’ reliance on a veteran player entering the latter stages of his career. However, Ramsey’s proven track record and leadership could justify the investment, particularly for a team looking to rebound defensively.

As the offseason progresses, the Ramsey-to-Rams scenario remains one of the most compelling storylines. A reunion in Los Angeles could benefit both the player and the two franchises involved, reshaping the NFL landscape ahead of the 2025 season.
